Tire Rack carries them and really hard to beat their price and service. That's where I got mine.

I just got new wheels (HRE R101s for aesthetic reasons) and will be selling mine, although mine are 20" fronts and 19" rears. Did that So I can put more rubber out back for traction.
2 OZ Superforgiata Centerlock 20" x 9" front wheels: light grey
2 OZ Superforgiata Centerlock 19"x11" rear wheels: light grey
These were on my 2014 991.1 TTS
You may not be looking for such a setup, but if you are, these are now for sale.

I might be reading this wrong, or is there more to it I am not seeing?

I just picked up a set from Damon (TR) for my 997.2 Turbo. I looked all over for used, but hard to beat TR for these wheels. I went with Bronze in GT2RS size.

That's an interesting approach Dave.. I would think that larger diameter and same width wheels would increase your contact patch ? Also you seem to have gone 11" width in the rear which reduces the tire size vs. stock 20x11.5".

This is a drag racing setup. Larger sidewall rubber more important than contact patch for hard-launch traction. 19" allows larger sidewall Mickey Thompson drag radial that sticks better than any 20". Also, these wheels are much lighter than stock, reducing rotational mass and making the car quicker/faster in my experience.

Also, I believe 19" fronts (at least with OZ Wheels) aren't possible on the 991 TTS due to clearance issues.
