I've got the mod bug and I have been thinking about new wheels. I still sort of like the 997S wheels, and I don't want to change unless I find something I really like. Thinking about HRE 540R's, also have taken some liking towards Kinesis K19's or K29's. Pics below of a 997S with the HRE's, and the Kinesis wheels. Opinions anyone?

If you can afford them or want to the best in my opinion are the rs97 monolites from champion!
Light and bad to the bone!

Thanks, guys.
Rob - Almost got the SSR wheel for my Targa but up close didn't like them as much and went for the BBS RS-GT, and I've heard bad stuff about the SSR's (strength, weight).
The Kinesis K58's (see pic below) are also something I've considered - they look great on the GT3 - but not sure if 19's are available yet.
I have the 997 Carrera S wheels now and, like I said, sometimes I like them but sometimes I'm growing tired of them. The Champion RS97 is almost reminiscent of the 997 Carerra S wheels, but not my taste. The new Champion RS98 is a nice looking, clean wheel, and the Champion RG5 monolite titanium is real nice but maybe very pricey.
