Some of you people amaze me. You want to spend extra $$$$ on items because it has a name like HRE, Michelin, Brembo, Techart, Porsche etc. when there is comparable stuff out there for a helluva lot less $$$. For instance, I bought the set of Hankook tires for less than the price of two Michelin PS2's and they are just as good....and quieter.

The wheels look awesome! Now go enjoy the hell out of that car and quit wasting time on Riley.
Also, you say you could care less about the PCCB's. Give it a month of driving and you will love em'. You'll also start to notice other European cars that have black front wheels and grey back wheels.

My wife's X5 is covered in brake dust one week after I clean them.
Thanks for the compliments

remind me of the new 2010 turbo wheels. forged obviously are lighter and great for the track but unless you track your car its like PCCB's vs. Big Reds. you guys should just have a beer and make up... i think they look sweet

Actually if you Google rijowysock you'll find that Riley is/was a distributor of Works Wheels and seemingly would be advantageous for him to post pictures of and promote his wheels. Looking at their website most of the wheels are "DUB" or ricer which was my first thought when I saw pictures of his car. I also noticed it is common for Riley to get banned from some of the better forums such as 6speed and teamspeed presumably for trying to push product and slamming advertisers.

Just a quick post to say I think those wheels are some of the best looking I've seen on a 997.1. Nice choice, and the yellow calipers just add to the appeal.
Enjoy.
Enjoy.
