Lightbulb Need a jury again! Please share your fashion advice

I think this is wintersickness. Without being able to drive the car, I've decided I need to get some new stuff for it. For the moment it's gonna be a new set of wheels. So I got the following four option, and as usual put my trust to the rennlist community. The car is a black metallic 993TT (what else..?)

Following four are the options:

1.) BBS LeMans

2.) BBS RS-GT

3.) AEZ Olymp

4.) AEZ Forge


So please give me your input, and perhaps share a new thought

i like #3, but i am biased towards more open wheels like the gemballa competition wheels or the roock wheels. i find the more meshy wheels are pain to clean and look a bit dated.. just my opinion.

I voted number 3 because I like the retro look of the wheel but I'm not sure how they'd look on a TT. I'd like to see them photoshopped.

BBS LM's are beautiful. I also like the Roock wheels on the 993 tt.

BBS LeMans is my first choice, the RS-GT's second. I think the Olymp looks better on a Mustang or Camaro.

Like others, I vote for the BBS Le Mans. Not sure about the Olymp.

BBS LM's for sure. Are the BBS LM's heavier than hollow spokes?

I voted for #2 because they are like my wheels. I do not have the rivets which I like. I have two questions for you. Are they 18 or19 inches? How much do they weigh. I (as some of you know) put on the RUF 18" wheels and was amazed at how much the added weight hurt acceleration.

If they are 19" Champion makes a similar wheel they may be lighter than the BBS.
If the BBS are lighter than what you have now, I say go for #2.

Just my opinion. All the wheels look good that you have chosen.
