What do you mean by Carrera Sport Classic wheels? My car is a 997.1, but has Carrera Classic wheels if those are what you are looking for.

There are Carrera Sport wheels and there are Sport Classic wheels, but there are no Carrera Sport Classics!

I think you misread the OP's request. He's asking about the sport classic wheels which are the fuchs style that come on the 997 sport classic edition.

Don't have any pics for you, but I know these wheels will look fantastic on meteor grey. I'm considering them as well as BBS CHR's in black with polished lip.

Is this meteor grey ? I have a C4S, so this would be a perfect example of what I looking for, but I find the pics darker than meteor grey (took them from teamspeed.com)

What do you think ?

I am not feeling the Carrera Sport Classics. They look small on the car. I know it is an optical illusion, but the wide polished rim makes the spokes look short, which makes the wheel look small.

Guess I'm in the minority, but I think you have a good point.

Kind of feeling the same. They look OK on lighter colored cars, but the darker the car, the less I like them. There seems to be a lot of other wheel choices that generally look nice, without having to squint and think about it. I love the idea of these, but it seems better in my mind than in reality...so far.
