LOVE. I've always said that two sets of wheels/tires per car is the only way to fly. You have more than one pair of shoes, right?

Two? I think I've got 8 sets now for all the 964/933 variants.............

Mark, what are the wheels coming off? If you want to sell, my cousin was asking me for something black centered for his red turbo.

Exactly! I have a set of 996 turbo wheels too. Different shoes for different occasions.

IIRC... they are 18x10 in the rear and 18x8 in the front. The rear tires are 285/30/18 and the fronts 245/40/18. I'll probably step up the rears to a 295 or 305 when I change the tires sometime in the near future.

Just one more shot...

you be funny

It's the lift setup at my home shop. Ramps to get it over the mid-rise lift.

rears are 12", front are 8 1/2" mybe the right ratio for a RWD 993 turbo?

(kidding, not changing the size of the rubber. 315/30 in the rear)

Mark, there no wrong choice here. I'm not a big fan of the mesh type wheels but these do look great. I really love the black on black though.. Man, now you've got me thinking..

. What is the offset on the 12" rear?
