I like the wheels but, I also miss the mass in the wheel wells that Ruf or the original wheels bring to the appearence.

That being said, I think the car is very nice.

yes i did defend the 997tt wheels. thanks jason for posting. I bought them from Ernie's alloy's here in miami he has 45 porsches himself including 3 993tt all with under 300 miles not to mention his 997 gt2 and 4 slantnoses. the rear wheels weighed 10 pounds less than the 997tt wheels and the fronts wieghed 5 lbs less each than the 997tt, i guess i need to change my avatar. Ernie claimed these are the lightest wieght 19s in existense and i retained my old tires still at 90%
