Thanks LPMM
While you can't argue with the original, I'm of the opinion that the Otto's latest version is best suited to the newer cars. I feel like the Rotiforms are right in line with the modern classic look that I am going for and I got to custom build exactly what I wanted.

They would be nutty in widebody fitment. Not to mention, they look even better in person!

I think that is possibly due to the camber and lack of visible sidewall on the tyres and or the angle the photos have been taken at.

It isn't the wheels that make it look cartoony, it's the whole package. That's the idea behind a stance car, it tries to look like an artist rendering.
For example, go watch an ep of Overhaulin' and see the sketch that Chip Foose starts with, then look at the final product. They're similar, but the actual product doesn't look as dramatic. A stance car tries to get create that appearance but in real life.

I love the finish of these wheels best looking Fuchs interpretation I have seen on a 964 for me they have a modern feel to a classic design if that makes sense.
The car looks great it would be a dull place if we all done the same thing.

All good, too each his own, although your analogy was totally inaccurate regarding the thought process behind my car.

The Fuch interpretation is good. I just like most Porsche guys can't get my head round slammed cars - for the much document reasons. A failure in my part re the dubby scene.
I'd like to see, for once the wheels with normal tyres.
Anyway, since we're talking about 'fresh' wheels would love a set of 454 HRE wheels for my 'whip'.
Glad you're enjoying your 964 - as you say each their own.
