What offsets did you wind up getting? Those look a bit more aggressive than the OEM offsets.

Man are those wheels pretty...makes me want to go out and have my wheels painted gunmetal grey!

WOW! Nick those look great. We built 8.5 front wheels using custom offset centers, and in the rear got aggressive and used 3.25" rear outer lip. The stock wheels are 8" and 10" and actually use the same 1.25" outer lip front and rear. The color used was stahl grau, and is the GT2 color on the Speedlines for the TT widebody. As Nick said we used a new set of wheels, and re used only (2) 1.25" front outer lips - everything else got changed. I do have a set of Tramont wheels here that can be built into 8.5 and 10.5 for the narrow 993 cars and 8.5 and 11.5 for the widebody cars. I have to order new parts to build them as I like, but hey it just means who ever buys this set gets an almost new set. Pictures attached of the Tramont wheel. It is so similar to the Speedline 993 RS it is scary. jdorociak@gmail.com jim

Absolutely... Specs are 8.5x18 ET46 & 11x18 ET40

Perfect fit.

Jim - Tramonts are indeed a very close copy to the speedlines. The nice thing about them is that they offered a staggered outer hoop with a wider lip on the rear:
