Of course you did. I saw you eyeing those Japanese BBS wheels. I'd be all over those if I didn't have an order in with Eric @ Supreme.

E88's. My standard go to wheel. I really like the E07's but not enough to go to a center lock setup. Wish they made that wheel in a 5 lug. Also like the FIR but that only comes in a 20 and the FI which does come own a 19 is also a great wheel but at that point may as well just get the Apex wheel.

Excellent. Also agree that I really like the E07. Although I’d like to see an FI-R in our 5 lug narrowbody fitment in a 19”.

Let me share what I WASN'T able to do, to hopefully save folks some time:

I bought a Mr12Volt CarPlay retrofit board for the PCM3.0 -- get myself some CarPlay and not loose the stock ascetics. Pulled the PCM this morning and realized that 997 GT3s aren't a fiber-optic MOST system, which the Mr12Volt kit requires. Had a quick back and forth with Nick from NMAuto (on the weekend no less), his kit works with cars that don't have MOST stereos. Perfect. Ordered his kit for the GT3, should be here next week.

All is not lost. I decided to throw the Mr12Volt kit in my 997 GTS instead, since it is a MOST system. Install took about 2 hours total and is very straight-forward. Hopefully I have the same experience with the NMAuto kit...

interesting! I didn’t know that. I’ve been running the NMAuto kit for over a year. Love it. Nice that you swapped it over the GTS
