Default New wheels on my RS - Advan TC3

am I the only few who run JDM wheels on a Porsche?

18x9 / 18x11
Ventus TD 235/40-18, 295/30-18(widest they offer)

just ran buttonwillow yesterday, still getting used to the car, my first time driving a porsche on the track. the TD tires are amazing, they are less than ideal width but had so much grip. i wasn't used to the car and in the last session i learn the car would grip and rotate with more throttle.

They seem to fit the car perfectly. Actually, the whole car looks awesome; don't change anything.

Your car looks like the one in the ads in excellence- is it?

JDM wheels are one thing, I am running a JDM Ti exhaust from Trust/JIC cross on my GT3. Got them for a song, MSRP >$6k. Weigh about 1/5th what stock mufflers weigh. Lightness added.
