Default Anybody out there running these? Forgeline, SX3-R

Anybody out there running these? Any pictures on the car?

I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on them, but I would love to see them in person or see some photos of them on a 996.

I have these with Hoosier RS04's on my GT3. They are not on my car now. I have black Fikse also. See my post from two days ago. I will put these Forgelines on and take a picture so you can see them. Very nice wheels.

See ViperBob. He has them on his 993TT. I just ordered a set through him and DEVEK, and will be putting Hoosiers on them for my GT3.

Frankly, haven't seen the bill yet. I called Bob to order up a different set, and he recommended these, which he runs on his car.

Here are some photos. Granted these are not the best. Dark car, dark wheels, in my garage at night, oh well. It was worth the effort I hope.

I have not weighed them yet. One problem: a standard impact socket will not fit around the bolt. I will go weigh them.

What is the best slick out there? I am looking for one that is closest to a street tire. I know that sounds like an oxymoron, but you know what I mean?

Here are a couple pics. Not the greatest shot for showing off the wheels. I will post more when I find them.
