Thank you! I got them during their Black Friday sale for $3K. I think they run the sale every year.

Not on the car, but these Circuit+ RS-5's would look fantastic...

Apex VS-5RS Forged Wheels. Front 19x9" ET50. Rear 19x12" ET46. Anthracite. Tires are Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3, 245/35-19 & 305/30-19. Car is a 997.2 C4S with GT3-RS style wing and checkered decals.

Looks great, enjoy those wheels!

Thanks Brandon! Your wheel designers did a great job on these. I also appreciate that y'all offered the fitment guide on your website, which I used to select the right tires for my mixed street/track use.

How bad is clearance for pulling in and out of driveways or speed humps, etc? I'm stock ride height with GT3 front splitter and I scrape my driveway and some speed humps. Also certain dips in the road it scrapes. I'd like to go a bit lower but I'm hesitant.

Clearance is low. It's much better than the cup lip I had. If you're scraping at stock height expected that to increase 50% or more.

The spokes look scalloped, which is a great way to shed weight.
Are they forged?
Weights and sizes, please.

These are our Flow Formed SM-10 in what is likely 19x9"ET50 and 19x12"ET65 (maybe 19x11"ET60), and good attention to detail. Many of our wheels come with side milled spoked to shed weight where the material isn't contributing to strength. We also have Forged options that are up to 2.5 lbs lighter per wheel.

19x9"ET50 ~21 lbs
19x11"ET60 ~23.5 lbs
19x12"ET63 ~23.75 lbs

Hi guys, i`m trying to figure out wheel specs which suit my narrow body 997.1 C2S with factory aerokit, i`m looking at 19" wheels, front 9J ET53 and rear 12J ET46, will it fit? Or this specs is for GTS and C4S only? while we are here maybe there is some recommendations for this car which specs should i go for, it will be mostly weekend road car, but i like almost flush look and car is lowered on coils.
any help appreciated, thank you!

12J ET46 will not fit NB.

You'll want 11+50 or 12+62 (or right around there depending on what sort of fitment you're going for)
