I love the D90s. IMO, they are a clean, simple design that matches the shape and design of the 911 itself. They don't call attention to themselves with unnecessary design elements--just like the classic Fuchs wheels.

The lobster forks, on the other hand (claw), tries to be too clever in its design--a five spoke with too many holes. It looks like it was designed by Bob Kane of
DC Comics.

Haha, this is pretty much the response I've gotten since changing...maybe about 70% in favor of the Turbos but much more split than I expected.

I knew my sport classics were heavy but wow. I probably went from the lightest setup possible (18 in carerra classics) to the heaviest (19 wide body sport classic wheels)
