Default Rim Choice
Hey guys, I have an issue. I have 2 sets of rims and and I like them both. Which one do you like best?

Also, yes I know the spoiler is up. It is stuck up and I have been to lazy to drop it at the dealer to get it fixed.




Choice A


or



Choice B

I'm a sucker for 5-spokes (have Sport Classics on my summer AND winter tires). On the stuck spoiler? SURE!

Both look nice with the colour of the car but I like A a bit more.

I am surprised how lopsided the answers have been. I bought the car with the 5 spokes but felt they looked very “not Porsche”. Think A looks much more aggressive while B looks like a cruising rim.

Agree. I like A - very sporty and to me goes with the car. I don't get the same feeling with B in the 'not Porsche' way.

Obvious solution:
A for summers
B for winters

Oh definitely choice A! Are those HRE’s?

choice B seems a bit outdated. I would have chosen B 15 years ago.
