Leave the 19 inch wheels on there and see if the look bothers you after you have had chance to acclimate yourself to them. A big change to your car can be a shock.
I like them, they fill the wheel wells nicely and they are not too busy. Bertrand doesn't like them because they are taller than he is...
Bought a set of Champion RG5 forged 19 inchers. Meh..... The car looks too tall but I could not lower the front any further so it is back on the 16 incher disc wheels but I put my S4's 16x8 at the rear for now.

Whilst it looks good I think you should have left it stock.
I found the stock steering wheel uncomfortable on long cruises, no place to hook my finger which is my preferred driving style. I installed a Luisi, smaller diameter than stock and IMHO really suits the car.<br/>
Wow, that is a terrific auto. Deserves special event status, from the looks! Worth an analog clock install, IMO...
I like the Momo wheel- let me know if you sell it? I had a club 3 on mine for a while, and then went to a "Fighter", mainly I think because I was nostalgic for my Euro that I sold, and that I had a Fighter on.
I can see why you would want a pristine stock wheel for yours, I only took mine off for preservation since the color is unobtanium now. I also remember how that thread feels on the side of the hand/fingers! Wasn't there a source for re-shaped stock wheels, made slightly larger diameter?
Not a fan of the 19" wheels on the ground though. They are sharp in their own right, but I don't think they're the best pick for the 928 in terms of diameter and design.
Terrific car, congrats!
I'm getting increasingly sad watching my car's "patina" evolve over a few years of DD...
;-(
Nice looking car let us know how you like the ride with the 19's.
Thanks. Actually the 19s ride quite well and the turn ins are sharper than stock. I just need to find a way to lower the front further. However, I already decided on putting a set of Cup 1s instead. I will post pics when they are done.

I am just getting some ideas. I don't know if I like my new Momo Eagle. I am just trying it on to see if I like it. I know I don't like the metal center and I will be making a custom center pad. Should I use a color matching steering wheel or black is OK?

I always tell myself the rub strips don't affect the look much but then I see a gorgeous car like yours without rub strips and I remember that I am totally wrong. Looks so clean really highlights the shape of the car.
