Wow! Not sure about red, but the Volks are great looking wheels.

I really like the way those rims go with white!

Steve,

I was going to send you a PM the other day to see if you ever got the wheels so I could see how it looked. Great timing!

I also immediately thought "Carrera" graphics but that might be a bit cliche...

Maybe the old-school "PORSCHE" graphic with stripe along the rocker panel in red???

Looks great either way (although the bottom pictures have some optical illusion that makes the wheels look photoshopped or something).

Those wheels look "HOT!"
But just my 2 cents, I think either in white or black color would have been hotter!
Still they look cool none the less...

I like it, once the car is lowered it will look nuts!

I am O.K. woth the red, but for some reason (call me crazy) I like an odd number of spokes. I also agree that the "Carrera" script would complete the look. . . along with a suspension drop.

On the 993TT forum a few weeks ago someone had added red interior accents to the black interior of a black TT. A few red pieces on this car would look great IMHO...red seatbacks, red seatbelt, red leather accents on door panel and dash...

Very cool. If your car was a coupé it would be perfect.

Looks great. I really like the idea of painting the side mirrors red (like a cup car), but IMO I would skip the carrera side script.

Tirerack actually stocks them now (not in red). That's a huge benefit, since the other retailers never had stock, so you were looking at a 2-3 month wait for a replacement if you bent a wheel.
