How these:
BBS Race wheels in 17x10.5/11.5" with 275/40-17 A032Rs all around. As soon as I get 1" wider fenders in the rear, I'll use 315/35-17 tires.

Robert,
Could you tell us more about this BBS wheel? It looks just like the one used on the Ferrari 360GT.

While the designs are similar, given the offset required to put 9.5 " wide wheels on the front of a Type 964 or Type 993 and 11" or 11.5" on the rear, the asctual construction is quite different. Additionally, the wheels puictured abve are one piece forged forged magnesium (ala F1) while the Ferrari GT 360 wheels are heavier cast aluminum. Finally, the special Porsche wheels are centerlock with a unique titanium pressure shim while the Ferrari units are mounted by lug nuts.
