I get a boatload of thumbs up for my ghetto ride....

I would have gone 19", to each their own, but I just do not get people that treat a 911 like a Japanese Car, it is proven doing so kills the ride and the ride is exactly why I bought it. They slam it and put these bigger wheels on it, not my thing.

Okay, so it's not "your thing" - no one is pushing it on you. With regard to 20" wheels, Porsche has them for the new 911. As the ride height goes, yeah to each their own.

What I don't get are people like you who have to insult what others do. It's one thing if its for you, but keep your insults regarding Japanese cars to yourself little fella

If you like it that is all that matters, this is a public forum, I was stating my opinion, just because my opinion does not match yours does not mean it is insulting. I am sorry you took it that way. If I like something and someone else tells me they do not, especially on a forum, the last thing I consider that is an insult. It is an opinion.

Yes, you're right but reference to the Japanese thing is what I was referring to. I hadn't car next to a GT3 and we were virtually at the same height. Whatever fella and no worries - you're right in that all that matters is what I like and I didn't buy them for anyone else. Just the same it's cool.

My fault, read it again and that part did not need to be in there. I agree with you, for what it is worth I love the wheels, they look great, I would just go 19".
