Right, these Fuchs are so easy to clean it should be illegal...I just bought another set for my sons 99. They can be bought for well under 2k used for now,...( but are hard to find in C2 off-sets) it may go up when people find out they are Forged Fuchs..lol

They look like they’ll continue to spin after the car stops.

Everyone has different opinions on style.
Right now people love and will pay more for 911 in fly yellow.
I’d pay extra for a 911 that isn’t yellow.
Ok, so they have a "continuous speed" look to them,,, I can dig that...lol

Right !! I have found that these wheels are very " polarizing "....to Porsche people, they either love them or hate them....

And I don't know why ??

Exactly

There’s plenty of people who think a silver base 99 with amber headlights is the worst 911 ever made.

I’m totally cool with that.
