Default Show me your 997 with non-Porsche wheels

Any one running Momos?. And what about the Porsche knock-offs?

Lets get this started Here's my 997 on Avant Garde Ruger Classics (Fuchs knock-offs) I like the retro look these give the car. Now.. if only I could get hands on a not-so-expensive ducktail..

Love them Fuchs-look wheels.

Seems most 997-era owners stick with Porsche-specific looks. With so many to choose, why not? Just seems that you can pick up new aftermarket wheels for the price of used Sports or Turbo 19s

HRE P40's on the -09 C4S
Forgeline GA1R's on the -11 GTS

I have to say the Forgelines are my favorites so far, at least for a black car. The midnight silver finish really works for me. Doesn't turn the whole car into a black hole like all black wheels tend to do and doesn't contrast too much like some silvers can do but is sort of a gunmetal shade between silver and black.

I have the faux Fuchs Avante Garde Ruger Classics as well and they are a fabulous look...especially for the money.
