I spent a lot of time in the configurator toggling between the wheel options and a lot of time searching YouTube for 992 videos so I could see how each wheel looked on a Guards Red Coupe and I went with the RS Spyder wheels painted in satin black, like yours. 😍 My car is built and, if all goes well, it’ll be on a boat this week!

I like them and have them on mine but they will be used for winter tire duties now as I just don’t like the tucked in look. If they were more flush they would be perfect.

IMHO the RS wheels look great . . . when they’re clean. The operative word is “clean” and cleaning them is a real PIA. Unless you’re getting the Ceramic Brakes, these 911’s generate a level of Brake Dust that is seriously amazing and the RS wheels can be a serious challenge to clean.

Agree about the cleaning, but in the bright side with the gunmetal finish , it doesn’t make them appear as dirty as high polished wheels like the RG5’s lighter finished wheels

I have them - they aren't that difficult to clean. You can reach through the spokes and clean the barrels pretty easily. Just takes a bit of time and patience. No big deal.

Not my pics or car, but someone on here polished them and they look so good. I saved these pics from a few months back so cant recall the owner for credit.

To the OP, yes a fan of the RS wheels.

I hope I'm not semi-hijacking this thread ("trade" doesn't seem to be an option in the marketplace), but it's RS related. Apologies in advance.
I recently took delivery of my 992 GTS with satin black RS Spyder wheels and am looking for anyone who would like to do a trade with their satin platinum wheels in equal-ish condition.
A little over 400 miles on them, with factory Pirelli P Zero's, no curb rash. PM me if interested. I'm in Westchester County, NY, and only looking for a local trade.

thanks
