Default Ruf wheels on 997TT

just made the change and am really liking the result. Had to put a 15mm spacer on the rear. What do you guys think. I am not sure why this is posting upside down. Can someone fix it for me?

Nice, what sizes are they? I think they would look good on my TTS, to bad I have center locks.

Wheels look good, retro in a way. Where did you source those GT2 intercooler vents ??

Default GT2 vents mirrors

I sourced the carbon fiber vents and mirrors from eBay. Very good quality. It happens to be that there is a GT2RS and my local Porsche shop and I put them side-by-side and you can’t tell the difference. I paid around 600 roughly for the vents and the factory part cost 5000 from suncoast. no-brainer

Oops, just quoted you in another thread about this. Are you referring to the ones from Hong Kong (stonecarbon2009)?

Keen to know the source as well. So many poorly made options out there.
