Pedro, are those as painful to keep clean as they look?

I saw this in mrsullivan's thread where he parked next to a 997 and thought that the 997 wheels would probably look pretty nice on our 993's.

I think the 996 sports five spokes look great on a 993. In addition, they are easy to keep clean. Are the three piece wheels as horrible to clean properly as they appear and do all those nut heads corrode?

Cheers,

David

Veloce GT1 with Pirelli Rosso very light and strong and easy to clean - not that I would boast about it....

_ Oh, I forgot to mention - I have two on the other side of the car as well..... and they all also have those fancy super light weight multi-color badges.

Do you really have to ask?

Veloce GT1, lighter than all the other wheels posted so far.

Ooh, a wheel thread. Haven't had one of these in a while. The wheels I like are 1) Dave's wheels, 2) Kinesis Supercup IIs, 3) 997 five spoke wheels - I really like the 19" version though not sure if rear offset would work, 4) many of the BBS mesh type wheels - though I would think a nightmaer to keep clean.
