LUST... I want these wheels...

Hi guys-
Well, I haven't even had my car a week and I'm lusting after a set of rims for it. Always loved the look of Fuch wheels on a Porsche. Didn't know until just now that they make a version in 20" that fits my cab. LOVE THEM. Kinda pricey but DAMN that would be dope.

Anyway, I'm feeling my wallet getting lighter. Someone talk me out of it. I've got cool factory Agate painted Carrera S wheels. But I'm missing that POP that brighter wheels bring. Uh. Here we go....

Been looking at the Fuchs for months now too. So, don't look to me to talk you out of it.

I had Fuchs with the matte black inserts with satin finish chrome rims on my 88 Targa. I loved those wheels. That model run also had the black Targa bar that went great with the wheels.

I do like the way they look on a 911.50.

Your wheels look great though. Just enjoy the car...

Love this wheels as well and they are a bit wider to fit 305's. Website says 4s applications only. Typo perhaps?

If the rear offset is low, then it might mean it's only for wide body cars.

The 50th Anniversary Edition is based on the standard Carrera S but gains period trims and the Turbo's wide body - Autocar UK

Yeah, I caught that too. These aren't the wheels from the 50th. Those are wide body only. I think Porsche makes those.

These are straight from the Fuchs manufacturer in LA. These wheels just say Porsche to me.

They look great on older Porsches, really not a fan on newer styles, just doesn't look right IMO, but if you like them that's all that matters
