Default Which of these wheels looks best?

Asking for opinions. I'm thinking about going 5 lug with the idea that I may eventually change out to HREs (plus the slight anxiety factor of CLs)

Which of these 5 lug options would you choose? (Note that I'd probably have the standard Turbo wheels with the painted option - which paints the grey part black. Doesn't show up on the 2D configurator unfortunately).

From your choices, I'd pick the Turbo wheel, but from the configurator, with a black car, I think the Carrera Classic wheels look best. Your going to get as many opinions as you get replies though.

It's like saying does this outfit make me look fat.

Any OEM wheel with complement your car nicely.

5 lug is very convenient for the DIY'er and when going to local tire stores for service.

^this

Of the ones you list, the turbo wheel the best but I also agree that Carrera Classics look the best, especially on a black car like mine!

They all look great BTW - Porsche doesn't make a wheel I don't like.

You should also ask the people that have cleaned the other ones and ask them how many times they said "fuch it" when washing.

I tried not to think about that when ordering my car - I picked the 20" Spyder RS wheels to go with my white car.
