It looks like a 964… without springs.

p.s. Wheels are a little too bling for my taste.
hahaha, and some wont like the polished, some will.

I have seen a 964 with the same coilovers/same springs----handled well, no problems with turning radius, but to all their own. The wheels are polished, not chrome, and again too much bling for some, but dont confuse polished lightweight $6,000 bbs LMs for gangster wheels either

if someone pays $6000 for wheels dont you think they want attention drawn to them though lol?

understood but dont mistake ricey for a 964 that looks identical to many RS 964's on here, only with BBS lm's instead of cup 1s. The interior is ultra clean, the suspension is reliable, and everything else other than the wheels are oem. The sticker is only for advertisement

Anyone else notice the twin tailpipes ?
I dont like the twin tailpipes, doesnt fit well IMO, doesnt fit the cutout right, whats the point in doing twins anyways?

why without springs? havent you seen the 1000's of 964s I have posted with the billstein pss10's, they are low as well the AP CAR DESIGN cars.

Def not, too VW scene IMO----I like the polished LMs, provided you have a second set of wheels to switch between, but the gold is too much .


THanks for the reply everyone

The car looks very nice and I love the LM's also, but I agree with some on the ride height being way too low. I would also imagine there would be a great deal of bump steer as well.

Thanks for posting the beautiful pictures.

The cost of the rims don't factor into whether I like the way they look or not. Just because they're expensive doesn't mean they're nice.

They are expensive bc they are quality, not bc they look nice

I cruised through it before reporting it. Gotta make sure it was what it was before letting the hammer hit it.

You also stated that it wasn't because they looked nice...and I agreed with you on that.

At the end of the day, you think these things are the cat's ***....and others don't. That's life...you don't need to try to convince anybody on your preference.

Looks great IMHO. Maybe a tad bit low but it's really really a fine line there. Maybe that +5mm would be perfect (in the loooks department).
