Post Photos of 2002 996TT w/new HRE 540R Wheels (Better Quality Photos)

First, allow me to apologize for the **** poor quality of the photos I posted earlier. Although my camera is capable of taking great photos, I am just learning how to use photo editing software and, in my rush to reduce the photos for posting, I destroyed the quality. The following photos should be better quality (while still small file sizes for quick loading).

I went to Wheel Enhancement today and had HRE 540R wheels mounted. I could not be happier with the result. The Techart coilovers will be installed tomorrow, which should improve the look even more.

This is a photo of the stock rims (at the dealer):



These are photos of the new wheels on the stock suspension (pardon the somewhat dirty car -- I caught a lot of bugs on my five hour drive from Redwood City to Los Angeles):

Craig it's not so bad,
Honestly, I think the factory Wheels look better than those HRE 540R wheels (seems smallers than the factory.).
but why you don't put directly some '19 !!!? Over the TT the '19 are just perfect!.

Nice wheels. Will look even better with lowered suspension.

The only thing is cleaning those mothers. I don't think I would have the patience.

Sweeeeet!!! Next, you need to lower the car so it doesn't look like a 4x4. <img src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />

IMO, all 996 looks better in 19".

Craig, do you mind if I ask how much off of MSRP you received?

Feel free to email me if you like, I am intersted in upgrading to a 2002 TT w/ X50.

Regards,
Dan
