THANKS EVERYONE!!! Just got home from school, and as expected my car drew quite the crowd today. Even though I drive a Porsche Turbo, it didn't really attract attention at school, but today, I had 30 people around my car saying how nice it was!!!
Now to answer questions:

MIK911:Yes you can choose your lip sizes...I believe you can do 1.5 or 2F and 3,3.5,or4R for the 996 Turbo.

EM 996 GTS:Yes ordered them about 2 weeks ago through Gert, but they are on backorder untill next week or week after...

Gary FL:I am told that HRE counts where the actual inner touches the wheel which is .5 of an inch. This is prob why you measured 3.5. Mike at HRE actually sent me a pic of ur car and wheels when I was looking at lip sizes!!

Maxwell:Yes Conti Sportcontact 2's (235/35/19F and 315/25/19R)

Soon2be...:They are high polish, you cannot tell the difference between them and chrome unless you see them in person.
Again thanks guys,
Evan
PS CHECK THE TOP AGAIN NEW PICS!!!!!!!

Again, thanks everyone, all I get are compliments from people on the street, or when I park!! Even the old folk here like um .
Just can't wait for the coilovers to get here. Those and some Techart areo pieces and the major mods are done. Then its time to move to the smaller details
You can never have too many or too small mods
