Had a hard time deciding what wheels to get with my 5 lug conversion. I really didn't like the forgeline's that came on my car but those now will be used for track duty.

I ended up contacting a rennlist sponsor @Meisterwerk Racing to get a custom forged aluminum set. I really like the OEM style 997.2 GT3 wheels so I had them design it around that for 5 lug and keeping wheel weights in mind.
The fronts are 23lbs and the rears are 25.5lb. Overall I am very happy on how they came out.

Very nice. What I the finish called?

Great choice! Seems like getting companies to make custom wheels is becoming more popular. A friend of mine just did that with his car. Enjoy!

Thanks Ed, we tried to get a a close to the factory color as possible which I believe is ep8 color code. This finish is a matte silver finish

Thank you! With the cost of custom wheels today being so fair it just make sense

That's a great looking set of wheels...congratulations to you my friend.

Being the weight weenie that I am, I ordered a custom set of forged aluminum Monoblock wheels for my Boxster S from Litespeed Racing, and I'll send you a photo of the first wheel to arrive privately. 17.2 pounds for an 18x8.5 is pretty darn good for my un-sprung weight loss goals!

Thanks Steve, that's some light wheels you bought there. I think we could have gone even further with weight savings but since I decided to keep the forgeline for track I wasn't as concerned about shaving as much weight

Clean OEM look.

Thanks! The offsets that Jake at Meisterwerks chose gives it such a nice flush fitment.

Really loving these wheels, ceramic coated them from new and its paying dividends keeping the brake dust off

they seem more like silver color, ep8 is much darker, for info in pet, there is silver 9A1, titanium EP8 , white gold 539to reworket_bt1.frm

definitely hard to narrow down the color during production based on the photos we had. When it comes time for repaint we'll definitely try to find a Porsche paint shop to nail the ep8 color. I think we are closer to 9a1 on the current finish
