Default Cars and Canoli

Got my cup ones on finally and finally made it to one of these cars and coffee type things. After I took a bunch of pics and got home I realized I had some funk on the lens of my camera phone, so they are all kind of blurry.

Amazing how much difference it makes over the 16s. I think I'm gonna get some spacers though.
Also amazing how my entire car was probably worth about one of the wheels on that 918.

i like the blackish colored Porsche that looks like a Vette.

amazing that Porsche would risk the Vette comparison by making a model that looks so Goodwrenchy.

Most agree that 17" Cup1s are the best looking wheel on the 968. Looks great.

I think so too. It's a fantastic wheel. Do you know anyone that has run spacers on them to improve the stance? If so what would be good sizes?

It took me close to a year to get all of them. One I got from Germany and one I only paid 85.00 for
