Thanks Jorge.
Looks good. I may just have to drive down and see you from the O.C. Will be worth the trip. Do you carry the offsets I need in stock? Appears this may be my first 991 mod!
Thanks!

I don't think they will carry the wheels in stock, most of their wheels are 100% custom, however I could be wrong with regards to the FF01.

Haven't seen this finish before...
Brushed Satin Clear... really like it at least from these photos... Would love to see a rendering of P40SCs in Brushed Satin Clear on a Gt Silver 991.

We do indeed carry the FF01 wheels in stock. And as alway, we invite you and your friends (anyone really), to come down and spend the day here. We really do think it's worth the trip!
We just got some photos of a white 991S on a Gold Rush set of FF01 that we'll post soon.

Thank you for stopping by our humble abode! We noticed you checking out Laurent's 997 on P101s with Satoru!

And we can most certainly render up these wheels for you. Do you have a few clear shots of your car we can use?
Thanks,
Jorge

I had a set of 20" HRE P40's on my Aston Martin Vantage that I just sold and thought they are pricey, they are fantastic. My tire installer buddy who is V.P. for a major tire company told me that when they mounted the Michelins, they used very little weight on the wheels and the spun up very nicely on the machine.....its the best wheel he's every seen. Plus, they are considerably lighter than say the 20" wheels that come on my wife's Mercedes....those nearly break my back, the HRE's are much easier to move around. I enjoy the quality of the HRE's and one I recover from the buy of my 2014 991S, will likely get another. They are primo...
Here's an installation tip if you are marring your wheels with the lug socket, I've been doing this for years. Take a 1 gallon plastic milk jug and cut out a piece of the plastic the right size to wrap around your impact socket. its super-thin and you simply hold onto the plastic sleeve when gunning the lugs on and off. No more marks on the wheels.

After strolling around Speedfest for the afternoon and seeing a bunch of tastefully done 911s with HREs, I finally settled on Brushed Clear finish, I think it will go nicely with the GT Silver.
Now I just need my car to arrive, still sitting in the port in Germany

I'll basically have the Carrera S version of this Turbo.

Ty! Was really cool seeing the whole manufacturing process, and the P101s on Laurent's 997 look great.
