I had Wheel Dynamics on my 996. I thought they looked great, especially considering the price. I felt like they always looked better in person though. The depth and concavity never seemed to translate in pictures.

You're correct,

It's got to be that right angle for that full effect..

Looks AWESOME!!

What size and offset? How long did it take for you to get them after you ordered? You didn't weight them by any chance did you??

Beautiful!

I thought the 12" wide rears on the turbo will take the same 315 size rears on the 18" wheels like my GT2 has, no? Use the 305 on the rear of the twin turbo Lambo and they grip pretty well on high whp applications but that's on a 19" wheel.

I found another car for sale on rennlist also 5/2005 production but 24 cars after mine. Basalt black not as optioned as mine but very nice the only difference was no carbon and no deviated stitching, otherwise it's a twin brother black/black.


The car sold few weeks ago here is the link
http://rennlist.com/forums/vehicle-m...reduction.html. Good to see that these 996tts are getting some respect.

I bought my turbo about a week ago and it came with these. I'm frantically looking for a new set, it's tough to decide on which wheels to go with.
