Default The "toy" with new shoes...

Well... not as exotic as some other car here but hey... I'm proud of my 993!!!

Pics taken a few weeks ago... I've put some Kinesis K18R on it for the road and kept my OEM wheels for the R compound tires. I love these wheels... I love my car...

I'll take more pics and post them soon!!
Cheers
Pierre

Kinesis does make some mighty nice wheels. Your car looks great. Keep on enjoying.

I don't like the way they look on your car, give them to me, I think they will look great on my car. Just kidding, looks awesome.

What could be better than Kinesis? I think it looks sweet.

Michael,

Bought this set from a guy who lives in Kentuky... They were not new if it was your question (in excellent shape tough).

I've heard Lexani bought Kinesis a year + ago. I hope the quality wil remain at the level of the set I bought. Lexani is known for "bling bling" kind of wheels...

agreed. the turbo s wheels look really nice on black IMO. now if i could just afford a set of RUF 19's and some BBS 18" race wheels I'd build a closet just for my shoes. would that be considered a shoe fetish? i do miss those k18's....
