DT, what did you end up with.

I was convienced I wanted black but if they are delicate and scratch easily, that really concerns me. I'm pretty rough on my cars meaning they're not garage queens. I drive them every day.

I guess I'm back to silver.

Can't go wrong with either one I guess.

Any thoughts on these compared to the Innsbrucks?



They also come in black.



The gunmetal would match my car tho.

I hate this decision. It's a BIG ONE!

I like this design better. Looks a lot like the Sport Classic BBS wheel.

I like them too.

Then of course there's the Victor Equipment Lemans. Decisions, decisions.

hmmm not sure..... sorry but if you want multi piece wheels, buy multi piece wheels... I am not a fan of one piece wheels that look like multi piece. You are putting these wheels on a Porsche, not a VW or Honda.

my $.02

You are 1000% correct.

So I'm back to the Innsbruck. I'm leaning silver because the black looks too washed out.

Thoughts???

I recommend going to VE's website. There is a huge photo gallery of each wheel on different cars in different colors that you can compare to help you decide. The online configurator thing never looks quite the same.

black finish is actually pretty easy to touch up and only scuffs I have in 2 years are the ones my momentary lapse in judgment caused by getting to close to curbs.

Good decision!
I wasn't sure either whether to go black or silver for my dark green 996 C2. I would have preferred dark grey or charcoal which they don't have so I went with silver. I got the 18 inch with 295/30/18 and 225/40/18. Very happy with the looks and handling.

Do the VE Innsbruck come in different offsets for the 18 x8 and 18x10?

Will these fit a NB?

I'm on he Discount Tire Direct website and it seems if they only offer one offset???
