With his PCCBs ,won't make much difference

OP, love the upgrade! The Sport Design wheels and Carrera Sports are two of my least favorites. We're the 2nd thing we sold off after buying my wife's car, with the alcantara wheel and shifter being the first things.

mill probably just try and drive the Fuchs out of it😉. I did wash it yesterday and the wheels didn’t save a full two hours but it was MUCH easier!

the original wheels were undoubtedly my least favorite Porsche wheels but I absolutely love the Fuchs. If I didn’t have PCCB’s on the car I would’ve painted the sport designs black long ago. Those are a royal pain in the *** to clean.

Default What did THEY do to my 997 today

They can almost do the whole wash job together. Not quite tall enough to dry the hood or roof.

My middle sons OCD comes in handy when telling him the wheels used to be black but the break dust turned them brown.

Swapped in OE centercaps for the Apex wheels. Looking pretty smart I would say.
