Those wheels look sick! And, that is the best color for the MP IMO

How are the Formula43 wheels? Anyone else have experience with them

SSR GT-3 Wheels

All,

Lots of amazing pictures, thank you!

Mine are a little dated, but I still love the look. 19" SSR GT-3 wheels. Having said that I have a ding in the outer lip of my front wheel (came that way) and am thinking about either replacing with the same wheel or upgrading...

all the best,
George.

Is it bad of me to chuckle at the "Caution Low Headroom" sign both forwards and mirror image, then the whole length of the roof has damage where people have run into it?

On a more positive not. Love, the wheels! Those are my idea of pretty much the perfect wheel for a 911, especially if the center were gloss black, ala Fuchs.

How about these? Got them yesterday, but are still waiting for tires. Michelin has some difficulties to deliver MPSC2s.

Pete,
Beautiful wheels. Where did you find them?

Ditto on who you went through. How much did you pay if you dont mind me asking? Sizes etc? I cant wait to see what they look like on the car. I think those are the wheels that the V8 supercars run.

Those are Pista III's from a small Italian manufacturer, NTM wheels. They're made to order, delivery time was four weeks. My set is 8,5x18 et40 and 11x18 et55, so NB fitment, but as they're three piece wheels, anything can be done. Weights are 8,9 and 9,3 kilos. (By my own unscientific measurement...) There's also forged center version (Pista Forgiata) of that wheel, it's about 5% lighter. My set was €2000,- + shipping, Forgiatas would have been €2600,-.
Centerlocks etc available too, see their web pages.
