Actually there is quite a bit of meat surprisingly enough. I'll post a pic soon.

AVUS AF-502 Black


Does anyone know about AVUS-AF502 20" wheels? Specifically, the weight, cost and how they will feel if replacing 997 carerra s 19" classic wheels. I saw them on a 997 Turbo today an they looked great

I normally don't go for the bling of bigger wheels, but I do love these SpeedArts, here's a link to some gallery pics,

Totally agree. Such a shame what some people do to their 911s. Might as well rip out my hardwood floors and put in Pergo.

Dianic and Meaker,

The wheels are made by Champion. I bought the car from Champion Motors here in Florida.

As far as the springs, they are standard 997S springs. The car is a completely stock 06 997S X51 except for the wheels.

I know some people think that 20's on a 911 is tacky but I love the looks and I don't take my car to the track so I am not concerned with loosing performance. Believe me, as it is, it's more car than I can handle!

BTW, I get a lot of compliments on the car everywhere I go.

German

Couldn't disagree more! Although I am not into the "tuner" mentality, I enjoy seeing individualism in car styles and tastes. I wouldn't be so arrogant to think that my way is the only way!
