Default 997S ID needed

My buddy was wowed by the width and size of these 997S wheels/tires and took some unfortunately low res camera pics.

Anybody happen to be driving this 997 on the 101(so CA) near highland northbound at around 830 this morning? looks like F110s but Im not too sure.

As a reward here is a link to some gt3 pics

Thx

They look like the 305 wide Carrera Sports wheels to me.

I think they're the Kinesis F110 wheels?

It wasn't me driving, but that sure looks like my car. I am going to call the wife and make sure it is still in the garage....GR

Carrera Sport?? There is at least a 3" lip in the rear rim; those are aftermarket.

the car may have had wheel spacers installed. Mine has the OEM 5mm spacers on sport design wheels and it looks pretty wide back there. These might also be aftermkt. spacers which are available even wider than 5mm. I think those are aftermakt wheels too. hard to tell from pic.

The Carrera Sport rims don't have any lip (the distance between the spokes and outer rim edge); As I mentioned on 6speed those are def. aftermarket and most likely the Kinesis F110.


This is a picture of Synergys car:

Are you sure that's the 101? That freeway is always crowded. I see too much empty space!
