Not black, but you get the idea. 18 x 10 F, 18 x 11 R.

Wow...BBS's look great on the car.

Thanks again to everyone who has posted and commented...I appreciate it and you've given me a lot to think about.

Just completed the deal on the car this morning so going to get to work on it this week.

Slope is so very slipperyyyyyyyy.

One more nod to the 996TT hollow spokes. No spacers needed and 235/295 fits snug with no rub.

Yesterday I saw a Riviera Blue 997TT cab w/ 19" Techart 3-piece Formulas....I wasn't a fan of these wheels previously but they looked great on this car and had a huge lip. If I was in the market for new wheels I would have to consider these With Kinesis having been sold, Roocks discontinued, and Gemballas seemingly becoming rarer there seem to be very few options for 5-spoke 3/2 piece wheels

I don't know what it is, but I have decided I must like gold wheels (see Cargraphic pic link above). I have seen an Arena Red and Black that looked amazing with them. I bet they would look good on Aventurine, too.

Oh, and BBS race ain't bad
