+964 to the above statement. Additionally, I would use with a lightweight flywheel. I added mine post engine rebuild at 197,000 miles. She's a very happy driver.

Have now owned the car for exactly one year but driven only 350 miles. Hoping to spend more time driving and less time fixing issues in the next 12 months

Couldn’t take the silver overload anymore, so got a cheap used set of Alleggeritas as an experiment and to use for autox events.

I like the gun metal much better. It actually helps me appreciate the polar silver more as it helps it pop without being black holes like black wheels.

The car is super dirty. Too hot to wash it but not too hot to drive it...

Thanks! 3-4 lb loss per wheel over the MY02s. Definitely noticed it. I love light wheels.

I wish someone made a lightweight rep of Speedlines wheels. That’s my favorite on 964s but they’re so heavy.

Miami Blue sometimes looks like Mexico Blue depending on the light.
