Default New look and mods custom forged wheels from Fifteen52

Haven't been posting much about my car lately as I was busy with winter projects. I installed a fabspeed RSR exhaust with heat and dual outlets, Cult Werks RS brake ducts, aero mirrors and two piece forged 18" Fifteen52 formula classics ( made in USA ). They are made to order and I went aggressive with the offsets. The fronts are 8" wide with a 42 offset and the rears are 9.5 with 40. Please excuse my bad alignment as it will be done tomorrow. Also the front drivers wheel has a ding when Fedex dropped the wheel. Fiftten52 are sending out a new one next week. The wheels are a satin silver to mimic a anodized look but will soon all be media blasted and clear coated for a better look. I must say that the Fabspeed is SO MUCH nicer than the B&B system I took off...perfect fitment and great sound. Last winter I installed a Patrick Motorsports lightweight flywheel / GT3 clutch package along with Hartgett valve covers. I need to take some interior photos of the RS carpet set, door panels and Momo Protipo wheel. I hope you guys enjoy her.

Looking good and I like the badgeless rear deck along with the painted center reflector area. I have yet to install my Cult-Werk RS brake ducts and seeing yours will be motivation enough. Did you have to remove the bumper to install them?

Yeah the bumper has to come off to cut out and drill some mounting holes. Well worth the effort.

The car looks awesome. Very unique look w/ the fifteen52 wheels. I follow them on Facebook and they have some real nice stuff. I'm surprised you didn jump on the Cult-Werks RS rear center too.

Thanks Vandit! I've know Brad one of the co-owners since my VW days 20 years ago. Love his taste in products. Believe it or not my car was built on a tight budget and I turned every nut and bolt myself...I didn't have any more to spare for the center section! lol.

Come on up!!!

here is a pic of the other project in my garage. Supercharger install on Rich Pugh's 993. Don't mind all the oil spots. I replace all the lines and gaskets this winter too.

Loving the fifteen52 wheels

I looked at them, but couldnt see any in Porsche fitment. Do you have to ask for custom PCD?

Thanks
Chris
