Default BBS FI-R on GTS 991.1
sorry no pics! i am wondering (and i have searched) if anyone has put these gorgeous (and VERY light) wheels on a 991.1 GTS (9 x 20 et51, 11.5 x 20 et48). i see that the BBS centerlocks are 9 x20 et52 and 12 x 20 et44 which sound pretty close but before i commit, would love to hear if anyone has given it a shot. pics are appreciated!!

Yep. When I was researching fitment I found that BBS was selling the above sizes for the Turbo, GT3 and GTS which surprised me since OEM GT3 wheels do not appear to have an optimum offset on the front of a GTS.

those look incredible but do you have a pic from a front angle to see the fitment? What stops me from considering them is they are less aggressive in the front than stock and I want something that sticks out more.

The HRE R101 Lightweights sure do loom spectacular on the 991 GTS. They are also more lightweight than the BBS'
