Default thoughts on these wheels

hey guys just going through some ideas for my wheels and saw these wheels made by zerra. what are your guys thoughts on these red and black wheels on a guards red if i could get them in 18" with correct bolt and offset?. i believe the black evo-s are the same ones ap-car design used on a black 964 they have on their website.

I just heard back from them and they sent me some pictures of them on a nb guards red with some variations in finish that have different colored edges. I'll post tomorrow so you guys can see. The more I see them the more I like.

Those wheels look like they should be on an Audi 'S' model rather than a 964

When I first got my 964 I was convinced that these same wheels were the way to go. After looking at many wheels and also the prices I decided on a set of cup 1s for summer/track and some 996 ten spokes for winter. That picture of the black 964 by AP is still the screensaver on one of my computers. I do think they suit the 64 and your suspension and calipersnhad better bee clean as air between the spokes show everything. Do it. Part of me still wishes I had.

Well boxey I Respectfully disagree I think they compliment the. 964 body lines. But also agree that the wheel wells and calipers better be kept. Clean as there is a lot of. Open space between spokes. I have that black 964 as a screen saver one of my favorite looking 964's but that's just my opinion.
