Default Picked up some new shoes for my base

Had some HRE's on my old C63 and felt they set the car off. The Carrera Classics that were on the 911 were ok, but I never really loved them. Had a feeling it wouldn't be long until a set of HREs made it onto my base Carrera. Deciding which was tough, but I'm very happy with the results. I went with HRE RC100 in a non-standard color, Frozen Champagne. Really like they way the pop on the Jet Black Metallic without being too flashy. Big shout out to Lorenzo at Eastside Motoring here in Waltham, MA who handled all the bits and pieces of getting these in and on and the folks at HRE who turned these around fast (and with no rush fee).


2017 Carrera with HRE RC100 wheels in Frozen Champagne.


Really like the way the Brembo GT380's look behind the HREs.


Should have straightened out the wheels ... but I just love that profile.

There are some more pics here if anyone is interested: full res filthy car pics

Went from P Zero N1's to Sport 4S N0's. Unlike others here, I've noticed zero difference in road noise so far.

Absolutely amazing. Any other performance goodies for this 911 in the future? Perhaps exhaust or a slight drop?

Looks realty good. I'm considering bronze wheels for my black C2, and your pictures confirm it's a good idea.
Also, your car is probably still under warranty so it's not too late to fix the broken rear spoiler.

Also, great choice on the tires. The Pilot Sport 4S N0 is great!

Brembo GT380’s front and rear. The stockers were great running around town, but I had bigger plans for the car. And I loooove the look.
