I know you are looking for pictures of 17's, but since my Targa is also white, I thought I would share. I had the 17's with my M030/HD @ ROW sport height, but the Targa wheels seemed too small. I still have my original targa wheels w/almost new SO3s if I ever change my mind I guess.

I ended up running late so I took some crappy picts, sorry about that, my wheels weren't straight, and there is a slight angle to the parking space. Ill take another shot at it. If I remember right I my ride height is in between RS and ROW somewhere.
Man I really am diggin' all these Targa pictures
033s and HDs

Here's one at RS spec height...
(sorry for the poor quality...it's the only pic I could find. It's from a construction project. The guys got a kick outta the "Porsh" showing up in the middle of the marsh, so they took a pic.)

I'll second ITC's comments. IMHO the 993 Targa rims are the best looking out there. I have moved my set to three different cars now. Who knows, maybe someday they will be matched up on a Targa as intended by Porsche. LOL.

Looking at all these Targa pics I just had a thought. Wouldn't a Targa top from a salvage car be a good alternative to super-rare and super-expensive hardtops for the cab?

Here are a few more, slightly better pictures. Most of them I took crouching down a little with the camera height around the height of the mirror–the last one I took with a flash so you can see the wheel wells, I dont know if that is more misleading though. The third one I took standing and I am 6-0.
