Thanks, Big S. I didn't at first, but the black wheels grew on me, especially with the red calipers.

I have Eibach springs on mine. The ride quality is basically the same as Sport Pasm. It didn't lower it like I wanted and I actually hate the way PASM handles. I might be in the minority here on that, I think I'll be going with a coil over system and deleting PASM functionality. I know Ohlins are an option but I'm not sure what else there is. I got some unfavorable impressions on Bilstein and KW coil overs for the 997 recently. I currently have KW V3's on my B7RS4 and the ride is fantastic. I had Bilstein PSS10's on my 2013 S4 and I did not care for them, especially on the streets of San Francisco. Didn't mind them on the streets of Milwaukee but SF was bad.

This is exactly what I have on my 997C2 and I couldn't be happier with the results.
