BTW, I also got the Wevo engine mounts installed and once again what a great mod those are! I'm still on stock exhaust but the sound with the Wevo is nothing short of amazing! The engine notes eminating into the cabin is like WiFi compared to the Stereo it was on the OEMs. Now I really want to go for a Cup Pipe just to turn up the volume a notch more!

Speaking of music (it only gets better)...
I also removed my engine sound pad. Subtle increase in noise (maybe heat too?) and I like seeing more Slate Grey in the engine bay, plus almost every engine pad I've seen in a 64 looks slightly ratty. Definitely go for the Primary bypass if you want that Porsche Cup roar. Awesome mod. A couple months back I put on a cat bypass and can't stop grinning. Just one notch louder, but a more gruff, mechanical sound. LOVE IT!
Almost forgot about the drilled air box. X2 sound whenever you floor it or are over 4K revs.

Looking very nice, a light car with dark wheels look great especially white, silver and even red.
Just wondered what size rears you are running and with standard tire size?
P.s refreshing to see a 964 with flag mirrors.

Totally agree. Love my Wevos and love the (slight) extra noise transmitted from the mounts.

Thanks! These are the Mille Miglia Cup Is so the rears are 17x9 et52 w/255-40 tires. The size are about perfect.

Early,
I did buy the wheels from TR, but they came in silver. I sprayed the rims (and headlight rings) a couple months back with Plastidip. It's a nice way to see if you like the look before committing to paint/powder coating. It also works nicely as a temp. bra for the front of your car for long trips or track days. It's very durable, but can be pulled off.

I'll let the CA guys chime in, but it's pretty easy to bolt/unbolt for the smog test. It really adds to the sound!

I think these Mille Miglia wheels are great, they fit well with the right size and offsets. I think there is a lot of snobbery in the Porsche world with non original equipment, they are well worth the money. Good choice!
My friend has some on his white 964 and the wheels are painted white too, looks fantastic!
