Default Cayman S Project with HRE P40s @ SharkWerks

This 2006 white Cayman S project came into us with the rather plain stock 18 inch wheels. To kick things off with on this project the owner opted for a set of light-weight 19 inch HRE P40 wheels.

The car arrives:


A close-up of the stockers before they come off (and will be retained for track use):


And off they come:


And on go the HRE's:


The end result of the more aggressive 19-inch HRE P40 wheels finished in stain charcoal and wrapped with Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tires:



More to come in the future....

Could use a -20mm reduction and ride height and they would look even better. Very nice wheels!

Beautiful wheels, but are you sure those aren't 20"s? Seems like there is an awful lot of clearance between the caliper and rim . . . maybe you need a big brake kit now too.
