I really love those wheels. Are they Flow-Forged Light Weight F-1 ? Was looking on their site, also what color? Any model number? Thanks

I shopped for wheels for about 6 months. I wanted something lightweight that wouldn't change the dynamics of the car while staying within a reasonable price range.

I went with Platinum Satin AT4 19" Wheels from Wheel Dynamics. They are not forged but are lightweight. WD said the wheels are manufactured using Low Pressure Casting. The fronts (19x8.5) weigh 21.75-lbs. and rears (19x11) weigh 25-lbs. I am running a 235 in the front and a 295 in the rear. I weighed the new wheels w/ tires and the stock Turbo Twist w/ tires (solid spoke). They weighed the same.

Let me know if you have additional questions.

@ Dedens , looks good, what offsets are those wheels? And did you get wheels and tires as a package?

Nice car! This was the one for sale at Sunset Porsche, right? I just bought my 40AE from them just a week and a half ago. Congrats!

Familiar staging.

Thank you, yours as well! I'm very happy with the car. The salesman I worked with said your new C4S was pretty heavily modified. What does it have besides the wheels?

Thanks, i'm happy with it so far, still learning about the car but basically, it has headers , fabspeed exhaust, air intake and the ecu has been tuned , sport suspension with GT3 control arms. Looking into getting different wheels for it too.

Excellent to hear you are running some Fabspeed! Maxflo or Supercup?

I'll shoot you a PM about the wheels, there are a lot of options out there and I have close relationships with most all the wheel manufacturers
