@SupremePower , One thing I am really interested in is the centers for the LMs are more like 18s, so the rim section is proper. The E88s and etc. looks silly to me when they add that extra inch to make them 19s by using a pie plate for a rim section. That's just my opinion but I cannot get over it. I hope this doesn't trip anyone's OCD that hadn't had it tripped before but this has always bothered me when people step up rims to make a center for an 18" wheel into a 19" wheel. I would rather see a true 18" center with a proper rim section like the LM even if the other centers look better to me.

Sounds good man! I for one can say I love hearing everyone’s personal opinions… the OCD is what makes this fun as everyone has a little different flavor on makes them happy. Believe me when I say I understand! I’ve been doing this for over 25 years now I’ve talked/set up to so many of you guys and it’s always interesting to hear peoples opinions and what they like and don’t like.

There are so many wheel options out there and if you need any assistance, feel free to shoot us an email and we’d be happy to diecuss or help you with anything you need. Sales@supremepower.com

Hope you’re having a great weekend! Happy Cinco de Mayo! Enjoy your Sunday

On a 997 C4S running the 19x8.5 19x12 setup, are extended lugs needed due to the lower offset?

Not unless you run spacers

Whats everyone running for wheel locks? My shop advised me that my OEM lock key isn't able to fit in the wheel bolt hole on the LMs without proper clearance.

I think the general consensus is that wheel locks can be easily defeated with the use of a multi (pin)socket and it is better to just have a good insurance package.

Currently happy with my Lobster's but plan to make the change to Gold LM's. Is it possible to get them with less dish on the rear as I'm not a huge fan of the wide lip

The 2 fitments are the following for LM and the lip size is listed in mm

19 x 8.5 et50 29.8mm
19 x 11 et63 55mm

19 x 8.5 et50 29.8mm
19 x 11 et50 62mm

We typically run the et50 all around but the 11 et63 is possible too if you would like less lip
