Nice picture. I like the looks you're getting from across the street.

Factory Speedlines always look great but expensive and heavy. Although you can always buy several aftermarket versions.

Stock speedlines. If i was buying new wheels then the Cargraphic ones look stunning IMHO, similar to the BBS ones too.

May I ask how you fit 11 x 18's in the rear of a 964 trubo? I am using the stock 10 x 18's on my 94 and have barely any clearance, although I am running 295's in the rear it was not much better with the 285's.

These are the extra tall lug nuts in Polished aluminum. The PO installed them and they add a nice touch especially since they bring the polished nut to the surface instead of being recessed as the factory ones do. Pelican sells them amongst other places.

It isn't a factory wide body, I guess it's wider, another possibility is the narrow body rear arms.

You are probably running the stock 964 control arms. The turbo control arms are so big they limit wheel width on the turbos. I would love to fit 11's in the rear of my car.

Nice job looks factory, nice seats too.

Oh yeah - I didnt realise they were flush too, they look great.

There seems to be lots more choice of product in the US compared to the UK (as usual!)

Hi Tal,

Car looks really good. You must be quite busy these days at work.

Cobalt, The 964 N/A control arms will allow a 12" wide wheel in the rear and I run a 10" wide rim in the front.

Click on the little paired double quote symbols in the bottom right of the message. If you hover over it, it says "Reply With Quote" - the other one is a quick reply.

C'mon, how can you say that about the originals? I suppose you dislike the flag mirrors too!

It was only a matter of time...
