Thanks for all of the input. Although it's about 50/50 right now. I guess that is why I was having a tough time deciding. Maybe I should leave it the way I took the photos. RE on one side and Technology wheels on the other.
BTW, yes, they are the hollow ones.

Keep em both.
I have MY02 and Technology Hollowspoke Turbo Twist wheels that get alternate use on my 993.
And my 944 alternates between the Cup2s and the Clubsports.
Its kinda like my wife and her shoes.

proof the slippery slope reigns.I think it's a 11/96 build. I guess I am going the way of the slippery slope (or Steve's wife's shoes) ...

The BBS are nice firstly because of the unique design versus stock wheels and secondly due to lighter weight. Don't forget to use some high temperature tolerant paint to get rid of that ugly primer color of your rotor hats when you pull the old wheels off. I think those BBS might even look cooler with a dark grey paint job on them instead of the standard silver.

I love the OEM Wheels - but then again, I love the look of completely stock Porsches with tons of factory options...I know, I know...90% of the people on this board probably think I am crazy...but what can I say..I just think these cars are beautiful in stock form. I do however fully believe that if I did buy another Porsche; it would have to be a 993 coupe (currently have a cab) that I would fully mod out. But the cab stays stock!
