I want to add a new set of wheels for my GT4 and wanted to get some idea's of what others had on their GT4 with PCCB.

BBS FI-R are a solid option but I wanted to see other options. I am aware that some guys are running 19" Forgeline GS1R and GA1R's on their PCCB equipped cars but the clearance is a little to tight for me.

Thanks!!

Brixton Forged has a wheel called the WR3 that should be super lightweight. I think it looks fantastic as well. I don't have any specs on the WR3 but one of their heavier designs comes in at 19.8lbs @ 20x12

Coincidentally I just saw a photo of said wr3 on an M4 on a forum I frequent today

Those WR3s look a lot like the OEM wheels. Brixton wheels are very fancy, and seem to be well made. I presume the price reflects that?

I wouldn't say they look too much like OEM but they do seem to be a very fancy wheel. I don't know pricing but they are forum sponsors. Likely still not cheap. Kinda rare to find cheapish good quality wheels. The flow forged stuff from HRE, Vorsteiner, and Apex all come to mind when talking affordable, safe, and light wheels. Apex doesn't make track wheels for Porsche fitments though. I had their EC7 for my E92M and the ARC8 for my E36M. Maybe, just maybe the 19" VFF 106 might clear CCB. I know in M4 fitments they are in the low 20s for weight and they clear BMW's CCB brakes. And at around 2400$ they are a steal. Now on the forged side of things BBS FI, Forgeline, and HRE P101 / R101 are probably the best and lightest things you can buy. But these are 8-10k sets. Too rich for me personally.

These should clear your PCCBs, Allen...

I think the question is whether you want to stay with stock widths and offset or go wider. Stock specs I think it's hard to find a better wheel than the BBS FI-R's. If you want to go with a custom offset and width wheel, then Forgeline and HRE are top options. In between I think there are a number of offering from Volk, Advan, etc which are quality wheels with more aggressive fitment/sizing but aren't custom. So, I think if you start with a target fitment the options will fall into place.

I know nothing about brixton forged but I wouldn't buy any wheels that aren't from a known brand with a good history of satisfied customers. That doesn't mean expensive (I've had great experience with inexpensive flow formed apex and ssr wheels) but wheels aren't an component I want to be a beta tester for.

fwiw,I went BBS FI-R, would have chosen HRE if I decided to go a wider front wheel, and will go forgeline if I decide I'm not too lazy for dedicated 19 track wheels....

I really love the BBS FI-R but they would easily push $10k for a set after tires, tpms, mounting and tax...

I know for a fact that forged Forgeline are not that expensive. You may want to talk to your supplier; and if that doesn't give you satisfaction talk to Steve at Forgeline directly.

Which Forgeline's do u have ExMB?

I would add R101 Lightweight's to your short list if you're looking for something very lightweight.

Porsche Cayman GT4 Fitment R101LW:
20x8.5 - weighs just 16.00lbs
20x11 - weighs just 19.40lbs
