I like the BBS (alum centers) but not sure if they will hold up to street use. The Rial wheel looks nice also but have no info on their quality. Anybody have experiences with either. Also, would TPMS work with these. of course I can jst get the F110 (my favorite so far).

I would look at the BBS LM. Those ones you showed are more for the track.

Dave, these silver LM's would look good(pic 1)

....also I had these arctic cabrio pics laying around, (pic2&3)based on # of rivet they're not BBS- don't know if they're bona fide rial or knock-offs?

We've discussed the Rial's before. The quality is very good and they are a huge OE supplier. The appearance and quality is very close to the LM for half the price.

Do a search. O wait, you CAN'T!

Feel free to give me a call if I can help.

I have to agree with Damon about the Rial, very good wheels and a good choice for your 997.

These are my top choices when it comes to mesh wheels, not in any order ok:

Cargraphics, wide and nice
Rial, strong European made wheels
Champion, made by Speedline so good wheels
OZ Superleggera 3pc, not really mesh but nice
HRE, they have some mesh designs

I just got my F110s on. Custom painted matte black centers, I will take pics once the shop is done with the other goodies!

Do you have the budget for BBS magnesiums? Those would be so killer.

Can't wait to see the pics. Are you using TPMS with the F110(s)?

Please post a pic of the black center F110s. Was thinking of getting mine painted aswell.

Thanks - Rich

The F110 are light and handsome wheels, for the money the Rial Daytonas are great. I have the F110 on my 996.
