997's w genuine Fuchs please.
I just totally FUCH-ed mine up.


A little surprised the rears pop out a little. Saves me from having to get spacers.


Need to clean those calipers now. The wheels are embarrassing them!

 

I think your 997 would look better dropping it about an 1".

 

They look great especially on the Carrera White!

 

What beautiful car, love the color combo. Those are the wheels I want on my silver cabriolet. I agree it would look very kool dropped
What are the specs?
Did they cost you a small fortune?

 

$8K and change...

Dropped 1" for sure.
Plus, the 19's might be a more compatible size for the 997.

 

I kind of dig the 18. You just need a little thicker tire. Mine is carrara white, yours looks great.

 

Happy to share specs!

• 91" Fuchs Alloy Wheels x 4 in black 8.5J & 11J
• Porsche black wheel nuts
• Fuchs Porsche center caps
• Tires are Pirelli's 295/30ZR19 100Y Pirelli Zero N2 & 235/35ZR19 87Y Pirelli Zero N2

 

These ARE 19" fuchs!!

I think there's an optical illustion thing going on with the black center and oversized matte gray outer ring.

 

Yes if you want to spend a small fortune on wheels Fuchs are an excellent choice.

 

Thanks..any pics of yours?
Mine are 19"s actually!

 

Funny, you're not the first person to mention lowering it, but I already have the front spoiler scraping, and I'm reluctant overall to mess with the geometry that Porche decided was best for this car. Call me old fashioned!

 

Are you sure it’s your front chin scraping and not the air deflector in front of the front wheels? The reason I say that is because that plastic piece scrapes on mine all the time. I’ve never actually scraped the lower bumper and I’m lowered on Eibach springs.

I’ve got some Fuchs inspired wheels. Pic for reference.

 

Egg’wich, great looking wheels and I normally don’t like aftermarket wheels. Don’t drop your suspension - you are right that the Porsche engineers knew what they were doing.

 

Got it. Yes you’re right I’m talking about the air deflector. And admittedly it doesn’t scrape a lot. WHICH I LIKE! Makes my 997 much more daily drive-able!
