Bd,
what did you do with your old springs? Would they lower my non PASM car?

Maybe thick here...but i don't understand adding 20" to a chassis that has spent lap after lap on the 'Ring...and desert after snow shower... in development driving on 18" and 19"

Just can't see the suspsension working optimally...but you pay your money.
leaning more towards looks...not performance since I dont plan on takin it to the track... but I do see your point... hense the phrase "to each his own"

BD997, it looks nice. I use to have 18" Techarts on my Boxster and I really loved the look.

you will have alot of people hating on the 20s... but personally, I love 'em! I bet they look bigger in person then in photos. Techart 19s look like 20s as it is, so I can't imagine seeing your ride. Nice job... watch out for the potholes!

Like those wheels!... Please post pics when the car is lowered... I bet it'll look killer.

On the rear badge I agree with Mjones. Here's how the "911" badge was done at the factory for the 40th Anniversary edition.

-20s are too big
-Techarts only look good in the black centers, otherwise, just way too much flat silver
-must lower asap
-needs an aerokit

19s, lowered, black centers, techart aerokit would be perfection
