Those look GREAT, I have eyed those myself but didn't see narrow body fitment. Your car looks to me like a narrow body, but can you confirm? Any clearance issues with the rears? Did you by chance capture what those wheels weigh?

Correct I have a narrow body. Clearance is not an issue.
It all depends on how low your car is...I'm pretty low and I rubbed once in the rear. They were definitely lighter than the stock rims for sure, but I honestly do not care about that.
Nice looking wheel. Another plus is that the spoke design is open enough that you can now do annual brake fluid bleeds without even removing the wheels - just reach through and attach the silicone hose to the bleed nipple.
For Khloesdad, can you confirm whether the bolt seats of the wheels are the standard ball / radius curved seat like OEM Porsche wheels or are the conical or tapered seat like a lot of aftermarket wheels. The lug bolt seat has to match the wheel seat.
OEM ball or radius seat on the left. Aftermarket Tapered or Conical seat on the Right.
Pete, not until they hit my door. I wont be in a rush to install them if they don't accept stock, then I may opt for a set of titanium. Those Ti's are beautiful.
Congrats on the gorgeous Gold Rims! Let me echo your positive experience, and do you one better. The manufacturer was willing to do a bit of customization by painting the area around the Lug openings Black, to match my black lug nuts. Look closely and see how well the color combination works together on "Blanca" (my 911) who is the only "girlfriend" my wife will let me play with. Simply beautiful. The funny thing is, I had purchased the German-made OEM equivalent lug nuts BEFORE finding and buying the "perfect" rims to use th 19 x 8.5 Fronts 19 x 11 Rear Blanca - my 6sp 2012 Carrera C4S 997.2
em with. Yes. I am very satisfied. This boy is happy with his toy :-)
