Anyone interested in trading their turbo twist wheels for my Fuchish ones?

If I were you, I'd buy buddies hollow spokes, have them refinished and away you go - 11 - 1200 dollars and done.

I think your wheels look good actually. The problem is that you need to lower your car. That's the visual issue I see. No matter what wheels you get, it's not going to look that great until you deal with the ride height.

Your current wheels might also look noticeably better if you get proper black wheel caps. The wheels currently have wrong silver caps.

Fuchs is nice if it was the oem that came in the sport classics..maybe the center caps is throwing me off but those looks like the ones they sell at tirerack back in the days...
as far as aftermarket those new Apex are great, older BBS or Champion mesh, BBS CH-R in black, there's a techart wheel for sale in black in the for sale section would look good.
if you are leaning towards oem i think youre better off with the gt2 spec twist 12 inch rear and there are a couple stock twist in the for sale sections that i think are good value..
also oem 997 gt2rs wheels will be great on your car...

I'm a fan of black wheels as well. Agree with swapping out the center caps. Also like the Sport Techno's, am thinking about getting them for a change.
