Nice ride, OP, congrats!
I may be picking up a widebody soon and am new to Hartmann (or any) Twists...
Is there a "right" direction for the spokes? or is one side forward-facing and the other rear-facing?
Just noticed on these two beauties that the two sides shown go in opposite directions...

Perhaps an illusion as they look different from driver's side vs. pass side?

Thanks, Since the wheels are discontinued you just have to find someone that has a set and is willing to sell. Then most likely you have to get them rebuilt to fit your sizes/offsets/etc.
Thank you and seriously, about a 15 minute shoot after a cruise. I saw the sun going down so I stopped to take some pics with my SLR. They are not THAT great IMO. I'll try to do a better set when I have some time. Great advice on the exhaust, I might just go with stage 2 based on a youtube clip I heard with the sport cats.
"some quick shots I took". LOL. Beautiful car and great pics. Thank you.
I recommend you find a member near you and hear the exhaust. I have the Fister 3's and love them -- but I also have the stock cats. The sport cats and x-pipes change the equation (much louder), so you may want to hear a car with the set-up to get a better feel. I'd probably start with the Fister 2's.
The other thing to think about, you can turn a Fister 2 into a Fister 3, but you can't go backwards...

Keep the BBS. I know they aren't as rare, but I like the look of mesh wheels. The BBS are most likely lighter as well.

WOW, just beautify. Seriously nice looking car. Congrats. Wheels look great and what a sharp color. Enjoy the heck out of it. Please share some videos once you put the Fister stage 2 on there with the Fabspeed x-pipe. I am thinking about that mod. Already have the stage 2s. You can check out the sound in my sig video. No x-pipe, but still sounds fantastic.

These are the combos I’ve had over the years:
Fister 2 < Fister 3 < Sport cats+Fister 2 < Cat bypass+Fister 2 < sport cats+Fister 3 (this last combo is on a good friend’s 993 local to me...loud!)
If you have nearby neighbors, light throttle when leaving the hood

P-Daddy, which setup was your favorite? I have Fister 2s and am thinking about x-pipes with Cats. Wanna make sure it's not too loud?
