For factory 18s my preference is slammed on hollow spokes.

Well, now I have 3 choices of rims.

Just picked up some Carrera III's, so now I am trying to decide which to put on and which to sell.

18" Twist's in my avatar and already installed
18" Carrera III's
or 16" BBS RS, original dealer installed replacements for the phone dials.

The BBS don't look great IMO with a white 951. Maybe if they were black on black or white on white. I'm not a fan of the cup 1 or cup 2 rims but like the other 2. I used the 02 turbo rims and like how they look. And they just fit at 11" wide in the back with 86 hubs and disc.

My02 or nothing.

I want to like the twist wheels but it really bothers me that they only twist one way.

Really really wish some wheel company would make backwards turbo twists so that both sides can point the same direction.

You must have super human powers. I can only look at one side of the car at a time.
