very nice! I have reverse mounted LMs on my NSX and I am picking up a set for the 993 as well.

Default 3 different choices race wheels

OK depending on session, event and maybe just my mood race car can be seen with any of these combinations

That looks a lot like someone I know here on Rennlist, his screen name indicates he might be in the medical profession

Default Decisions were never harder...

After much thought last autumn, I finally made the leap into owning a rather special 993 as my first Porsche ever. But the RH 3.6's simply have to go, and I've spent all winter thinking about what to replace them with. This thread has been very helpful indeed, and foudeS's silver kitten with LM's has me thinking hard about exactly that. I feel very strongly, though, that the LM-R's probably look even more fabulous. But still haven't seen a single picture anywhere on the web of a 993 with that rim option. Has anyone else?

Macca, otherwise I'm actually thinking about the Kerscher KRS custom painted grey (colour code that of the mirrors, bonnet, and door handles). That too will look wonderful, as evident from the pics of your masterpiece (unbelievable how many beautifully preserved and well kept 993's there are out there, but yours is truly one of the finest I've seen....along perhaps with the aforementioned silver arrow). Hope you won't mind me replicating your move.... :-)

Mike

That NSX looks bad-***, especially with the LM's!
