What is a stemless wheel?

Never mind, I just read about Antera's innovations on their site. Very impressive!

Yes very impressive wheels. I have them on my C4 (Type 309)

The new two piece 349 is alot like the Porsche Classic Wheel.

Question Painted "S" wheels

Anyone have shots of "S" wheels painted to body color?

When I first saw the 997 S wheels on pictures, I thought they looked weird because they are so different compared to anything else that existed before. When I saw them in person, I immediately liked them and now I like them even more. Visually, the wheels really help in setting the 997 apart from the 996. The design is original and different and groundbreaking in my opinion. As for the usual five spoke wheels, how many more subtle variations can we have?
