The most diplomatic way I can comment is...Lobster forks are an acquired taste, and are not everyone's cup of tea.
The Cup wheels on my 944 are/were cheaper, more curvaceous and lighter (granted, comparing 17 and 19" weights) than the Lobsters.
But, to each their own.

Cup Wheels ($979 F and $1050 new from Suncoast and dozens DFS on line used)
7x17 19.07 lb
9x17 22.26 lb










Porsche Factory Carrera S ($1395 F and $1545 R at Suncoast and dozens for sale online used)
8x19 22.3 lbs
11x19 27.8 lbs
