To tell you the truth I need to figure out what my replicas are worth so I can sell them off....

Congrats on the 987. Those 2nd gen cars aren't all bad are they.

So currently I have the 20' Carrera S wheel painted body color from the factory. But I really love the 20' Carrera Sports from the 718 so if anyone has a set of those they want to part with I would love to discuss it with you.



Would love a set of these for my 981

Default Wheels

IMHO, 19" is the ideal max for the 987 series, unlike 20" on 981 et seq. Many choices, the Fuchs reps on the red look nice!

The Spyder wheels are also an option for you, they come up used on occasion.

I definitely like these. I didn't know (Newbie) they made a Spyder for the 987. Looks sweet. Are those 19s?

They are 19” and they should have a perfect offset for your car although you will need to lower it about an inch to make it look perfect.

Factory option for this year, 19" SportDesign on my '05 987S. I really like the wheels. Not fun to clean, but they look good and ride well.

This really helps seeing different setups. Everyone's car looks amazing. Not seeing any aftermarket wheels. Is this frowned upon in the Porsche community to have aftermarket setup?

Aftermarket are fine. I think it's just that Porsche has provided a pretty robust set of options On my SP3 car, I love Fikse black anodized wheels. Look great, tolerate blazing hot brake dust, made for a purpose. They cost quite a bit more than a stock Porsche wheel though :0
