Post-Purchase: Upgrading Wheels and Tires on a 964 Porsche

After buying a used dream car, the mind begins to swell with possibilities. In the pantheon of fixes needed or upgrades wanted, it can be tough to decide what to do first.

Maybe you have been in that situation before, or perhaps you’re going through it now. At any rate, following along with Larry Kosilla from /DRIVE can be a decent guideline for you, maybe even a source of inspiration. In the previous /DRIVE CLEAN episode, Larry showed you a neurotically comprehensive pre-purchase inspection of the Porsche 964 he was planning to purchase. In this episode, now that he has purchased the 911, he’s ready to upgrade the wheels, and to help him with that is Proformance Industries in New Rochelle, New York. There we learn about how wheels are properly refurbished to erase years of curb rashing and uniformity-compromising pothole impacts.

At the end of the video we also learn about the “golden three percent rule” that is a must-watch for anyone who owns a high-performance all-wheel-drive sports car.
