Volk make great lightweight wheels. For me its not about the looks but the performance.... and they really help with the unsprung weight... they would be my first choice for track wheels if only they sold them in the correct offset for my 997 RS. Pure function and zero bling.... great wheels....

Consider also the CCW's for a track wheel.. Also very light and look great on a Porsche.. Ill be running them on our Gt3.. Ill post weights when i receive them.. I am told 23lbs for 19x12..

I was about to say CCW too, there are certainly better options for the Porsche in terms of performance/value, and the CCW are best combination of price/performance/customization out there. Easily better than Volk which you can't customize at all.

I am very happy with them and often get compliments. Since getting them (been over a year now I think) I have noticed them on a couple of P-cars at DE events and one NSX, thats it...
Adam the wheels are sick on your car. Love them but i'd hate to be a copycat.

+1 These look a lot better than the white. Also, the TE37's on the yellow Viviid Car fit and look great.

Rays make good quality, strong, and light weight wheels which I really like. For looks ,it is really personal, for me I like Rays "racing" looks, and I also like the deep dish 3-pcs wheels, different styles, but both looks good IMO, best to have 2 sets and switch once in a while =)
