Thanks man...I purchased them direct from getPorscheparts.com. They do need need to be modified for fitment though. Refer to this awesome DIY thread by @polobai :
Had a busy few weeks. Car now looks fantastic and I couldn’t be happier.
Tinted the windows, Clearplex on the windshield, Soul Performance Cats and black 4” tips, H&R Springs, full wrap by Inozetek in Midnight Purple plus ceramic coating, BC Forged HCS04s wheels in 20x9 and 20x12 also ceramic coated, satin black headlight washer caps and satin black “Porsche 911 Carrera 4S” emblems with the “S” in red.

Probably not the spirit of the thread, but I bought my 991...a playmate... As my kids are growing bigger and less comfy in the back, and because Covid limits travel, I figured a cheap cabrio for the family would be fun... Always loved E46 M3s and I found a relative peach for the price of a set of Porsche anniversary wheels + tires ;-)
It's gonna need some work (interior, bushings, reflective of the mileage, but mechanically and body wise, it's nice) - as you can see the 991 still sits in the garage (choice spot)
Looks good! how much did handling improve? Any idea on spring rates?
Thanks! The car definitely feels more "planted" over the stock springs...I need time to take more spirited drives on them to have a better feel of the handling improvement. No idea what the spring rates are as I could not find that information disclosed anywhere.

Thank you! The ride quality is great, surprisingly not as stiff over stock as I thought it would be. Very comfortable still. My wife and young kid approve! I'm still using the factory wheel setup: F20x8.5 and R20x11.5 with 7mm spacers front and rear. Although, I am mounting up my new BBSs soon which are slightly wider.
wow your car looks perfect after the kw has. I just got mine installed on my 991.2 cs and I swear it literally looks stock....I'm not sure what to do lol.

they can be dialed down lower, so easy fix. Id imagine you'd have to have the car alignment redone as well.
