It's so true, and you don't realize how much lower it is until you wash it!! I'm
bending over the car so much more now! Ha!

No spacers

looks perfect...welcome to the "hunkered down low" club. I'm a big fan of the 996 twists also, mine are from a TTS, and are a tad darker shade of silver-GT Silver, than the standard color. Very light wheelset, and a perfect WB fittment.

I sometimes think I could get away with a 10-15mm spacer in the rear, just to push them out a little. My fenders are not rolled, and I get no rubbing regardless of agressiveness, with my 295's. I doubt a 305 would fill it out any more noticably.

Pics look spectacular also. One looks like a sepia...except for the Big Reds!

Wow, it looks great Jakob
You captured the 993's best

I love the wheel color/choice!
And the height is perfect, IMO

Nice work jakob, I love the wheels/stance!! The TT wheels fitment is great, they look better on WB 993s
Right click save, those pics are very sexy. Good to see another black 993 owner keep their ride clean, not an easy task at all

Thanks Magdaddy, the twists were suppose to be refinished to the GT Silver
like yours! I even showed the powdercoater a pic of your car..He must've
been hung over the day he did my wheels since obviously they're nothing
like yours..haha. Needless to say, I love the way they came out.

I think spacers might be in order..I keep getting comments from the local
guys to try out at least a 5mm in the rear..I too am not rolled and have 0
rubbing issues right now. I'm just a little weary about using spacers without
upgrading to longer studs...

Thanks Sander!! The car was sooooo dirty in all of those pics, haha! The
weather around here is like the precursor Armageddon! Sun, rain, sun, rain,
monsoon, monsoon, rain, sun, rainbow, double rainbow, sun, rain..haha

Agreed: Black takes effort!

Normally not a huge fan of those twists, but those charcoal colored rims on your car look really damn good. Nice work.
