Couldn’t ask for a much better wheel on this car, in my opinion. I think they did a great job on the center 5 lug section as well.
They delivered today, so ran them to the tire shop and slapped some tires on them, and installed a few hours ago.











It’s hard to get the angle just right for pictures with the outdoor lighting, but in person, the bends of the GT3 spokes are well pronounced and look gorgeous.

Factory GT3RS vs AWC 992S
I think the AWC actually looks better because the 5-lug hub area allows the spokes to protrude further, making them look longer.
LMAO
(the exact opposite of the ugly wheels posted above).
Nice but the shields are pointed the wrong way. Bottom of shield is supposed to point at the valve stem some would say . . .

Literally just Google it and forwarded them the image. They translated it into their laser etcher. Honestly they should be charging more money

LOL! Cause I'm surrounded by this. :-)
I know, it is painful in the 911, but it’s worth an extra few minutes at 3 MPH :-)
Thankfully it’s not my daily! I’d go insane! Pavement is quoting me next summer - everyone is booked.

Thx @Wilder !!!
These will be my daily’s, and since I have multiple stock sets of tires I did the 20x8.5 +43 and 21x11.5 +57.
I should’ve went more negative in front since I’ll have -2.0 camber up there.

If I do a track set, I’ll go 20x9 and 21x12

Thank you. I also went with stock widths so I could use N rated extreme summers. I went with 57 rear and 38 in the front. Still feel like I could've gone another 3 or 5mm more aggressive all around. How are you dialing -2 camber in the front? I haven't aligned mine yet but not expecting more than about -1.8 lowered about 20mm on SPASM and otherwise stock.

Going GT3 widths for N rated Cup2 or F1s is the way to go for track.
