It s not just in US... It s the same in France and Europe so I think it s the same in the ROW... You can do WP or PTS but impossible to do WP + PTS since 2 weeks. I did WP + PTS 1 month ago and it was ok but now impossible...

Oh don't get me started on that!! You know air bags are designed to work best with the windows UP. With the windows down the bags just go out the window.
Also I just noticed my headliner on my new 2017 GTS is coming lose...its from running at high speeds at the track with the windows down and the air beating the crap out of it. Dealers says they will fix this time but if they told Porsche the car is tracked Porsche would blame the air flow beating it up. Geesh.....pisses me off....they will let us run in the rain with windows up now but not in the dry...WTF?!?!?!

Not sure, but the "logic" behind the windows-down may be 1) point-bys and 2) "safety" cause they won't have to break a glass to get you out of the car after a crash. Neither makes sense to me. The rule was probably devised before airbags even existed.

Just got off with a Certified Porsche Auto shop here that can paint my wheels in 539 Weiss Gold - which is the color. They said to wait for the Spring to do it. Car is put away any way but first thing going to do in April is to have my wheels repainted in this color. Going to look great

Not feeling this gold color vs the silver on the gt3/rs wheels. Doesn't look/feel like the BBS gold centers which work great on the older gt cars. Maybe it's the wheel design, or the finish...

Pics unfortunately don't do it justice... looks so much better in person you can see the different shades... and it's just the lighting and my iphone case to be honest.
It's a perfect match to GT2RS, which I really prefer that look vs. the black or aluminum. But that's why their are so many choices.
Best Regards,
Dave

I think that the more "BBS-like" design of the gt2rs wheels has something to do with it, as well -- at least for me.
