ET35? Or did you mean 45?

Nope. 35. IIRC 45 is HREs default front offset for 9" front wheels. And that didn't work for me. And they wanted $1k more to make them in 35. Supremepower was more than happy to accommodate.

Thanks that’s why I wanted to confirm. Your wheels looks perfect!

Thanks for the update. I think yours car looks perfect without drop. The Michelin have a boxer 'shoulder' looks much better imo. Any idea on the weight of these wheels?

Absolutely love this. Have my GR T on order and want silver BBS and looking for small spoiler. What model spoiler you running?

My 3 cents
  1. Your wheels suffer from the same issue that I have with my Advans. The design of the spokes/face draw your eyes to the center portion of the wheel, making them appear smaller than they are - which is probably why some other poster thought they were only 19s/20s.
  2. Your tires seem to poke past the fenders - I guess some may prefer that look, but it looks ill-fitted to me. I'd rather have my tires sunken in a bit as opposed to poking - again, personal preference.
  3. I believe lowering your car will not only bring the tires in a bit - for a perfectly flush look AND I believe reducing the wheel gap will have an additional effect of making it seem like your wheels are larger since the distance from the face/spokes to the fender will not appear as large.
Feel free to return my deposit if you'd like

Very nice looking. I like that you chose a white decal with the white car. Very subtle and yet makes the car stand out from other white 911s
