Those wheels look great on your car. Nicer than anything Porsche offers.

Do you know how much those puppies weigh?

With them being two-piece I would guess them higher than the factory's BBS models.

The Kinesis F110's are one piece and are really light - 18lbs for the front and 20lbs for the rear.

Sorry - my response was rather random - for some reason I had the F110's on my mind. Don't know the answer to your question.

Thanks for the additional pics. Best wheels I've seen on a 997.

Must agree those look Haut! They don't look that hard to clean either (I've seen worse).....put a couple coats of Poorboys or Zaino on there and be done with it.
