SHOW ME YOUR WHEELS!!
Ok So I took my car in for a wheel balance and alignment (SLIGHT shimmy between 75-80, I know I know just drive faster) and they showed me one of my rims is slightly out of whack. Yes I could repair it but now it has me thinking of getting new rims. Currently I am running these, 19" with 235/35/19 on the front and 295/30/19 on the rear. They also are starting to show their age so Im not sure I want to invest in them.
There is a guy local selling this exact set for cheap money but I may consider different styles so start posting lol..

Mike,
I know I'm setting myself up here for the dog pile but I am sort of a purist when it comes to me vehicles. I would not change to aftermarket rims. Fix yours by refurbishing them, or purchase the ones that are for sale if they are the same rim. Either way they look great on your car as is and Porsche spend millions of dollars on R&D to figure out what works! IMHO!

I went with a set of 18's from a Cayman. I thought they kind of had similar lines to original Fuchs wheels. Total investment was $100 after selling the original 17" twists to a Boxster owner in Michigan.

I really like the Carrera IIs.
I think Porsche got it right when they put these BBS wheels on the 911!
They're 18" wheels, which should give a nicer ride than 19".

I really like the look of the wheels I have as well, but you guys are saying I should really have 18"s on here? I have not noticed an issues with ride or handling, and in all honesty I drive it very seldom, and never raced.
