I LOVE my Carrera Sport Wheels
Two weeks ago I went back on summers, and couldn't believe HOW MUCH nicer my car looked like after going back to Carrera Sport. It makes a HUGE difference. The car on 18s Carrera 3 wheels looked BORING!
I think these are the best wheels for any Grey, Silver, Black 997 cars!

Great photos! And I have to agree. Makes me wonder about my Carrera Classics. Although I bought a silver car for the best combo of condition options, miles, warranty and price, my heart belongs to Gray. Your car looks great.

I have the same two sets of wheels. The Carrera Sports are outstanding looking and work great with that extra width front and rear. They are to date, the widest OEM wheels made for a 911 since 1964. The 18 inch ones are quite boring!

I'm lowering my 997 next week and adding RSS spacers....I'll post up pictures to show you!
I have to agree these wheels are the bomb! Its the first time in my life I have actually loved a stock wheel and will not upgrade to aftermarket

Great pics, they look really good, especially with that color.
Anybody know if these Carrera Sport Wheels are wider than the standard 19" Carrera S II wheels, are the tires switchable if I bought a set of those rims?

They do look awesome - I'd have to agree.

235-35-19 FRONT and 305-30-19 REAR.
If you have a Carrera 4 or 4s or Turbo or GT3RS Porsche makes this wheel with a different rear offset too.
