You nailed it...GT car rears are spot on....fronts are not bad but when you dial in -2 camber a little more offset outwards can be utilized. Good thinking...nailed it...beautiful wheels!

Love the 7 spoke version of this wheel! Great job.

Best looking aftermarket wheel available for the GT3 (IMO). Second only to the OEM wheels...

The factory front winter wheels are 20x9 ET51, so 20x9 ET52 should fit fine and push out the front more.

From BBS no. Would need to refinish them after.

Those white gold Metallics are beautiful!!!!!

For the record, the absolute widest offset that won't stick out past the edge of the fenders with a 9.5" wheel is 45 mm in my opinion. That's on a .1 GT3. That's what I'm running and love how the car feels and tracks mid corner.

So why did they decide not to make aurum?

GiuseppeM,
It wasn't an easy process to even get them to do satin whitegold. It's never been offered before for aftermarket application so we are glad we got what we asked for. I guess we can't please everyone. To tell you the truth, Aurum is such an new color nor Porsche or BBS have paint code for it so the unpredictability is very high in terms of finishing color. It won't be a standard color but a custom color.
