Default Love these wheels....

I think these wheels would look amazing on a aero kit 997 car...



Is there no factory porsche wheel like this? As the OEM porsche wheels in this design I believe are all center lock set ups. I know the 991 20' wheels fit the 997 cars (few have similar look) but for me prefer a 19 wheel.

anyone have them on there car here? Saw someone on 6speed have them on a rad 997 none aero car and looks good. Wish were made by reputable maker...

Somewhat similar to the Forgeline GA1R that can be had with 5 lugs.

i believe the 987.2 Spyder/Cayman R wheels are very similar, and available in 5 lug. not sure how the offsets would work out, though.
