Hi David....what a pleasure to hear from you!!!!! I've been living in Rio de Janeiro for the past two years... sold the 993.... yes, the 993 had the BBS and 18" wheels but I can't recall tire size...they were Michelins... I'm driving a Jaguar XKE 1972 the I bought there but it's for sale... grocery getter is a Citroen C3... perfect for Rio de Janeiro streets...the Jaguar is a weekend car...I can't afford to feed the 12 cylinders with premiun gas in daily basis! hahahahahahaha... How is Flipper????? And your health...I was worried about you.... please send me some pics of you 356... my e-mail pedrolinsesilva@yahoo.com

Take care my friend...
