Nice wheels.

The R5G's are nice too...

Champain tastes on a beer budget? Forget about it!
It's quite amazing how money flows to things of high aesthetic value...
And even more impressive is the creative persistence of people to find it. I've concluded there is no shortage of money, just the creative will to find it. And really, we're driving Porsche TT's. Sure these are not Veyron's but they're not inexpensive either. You can do it Strato58!

I have champion rs98s on my tt although not a 997 they look great on my 993. Super lighweight too I think they are the lightest weight short of wheels with carbon fibre outer lips. I too besides the new 5 spoke gen2 TT wheels can't think of any I like better.

Why is it so hard to find a Champion wheel retailer?

There are only a few aftermarket wheels that can compliment a Pcar; RS98's are def one of them. Use Due diligence if you are buying used wheels.

I am not a fan of deep dish... I think it makes the rear wheel look smaller than it is....
Then again, tastes are unique!
Strato the second set you posted, not the champions, do not have lip... thus in my view look larger.
Here are some sets to explain what I mean.
Note that most wheel manufacturers showcase 20 inch on lowered cars, so take the pics with a pinch of salt...

Here are my favorites.

Dianic, im more confused then ever. I always liked a deep dish but I think it works better on the 993 then the 997...so many wheel choices these days.
