That's a bummer. Mine are 19s in that picture.

I removed these AP 19" mono blocks and sold them after I installed my turbo twists. I wish I had kept them now.

Those are really nice looking wheels, very light! Were yours 19x8.5 and 19x12? I wonder who builds them for AP?

Yes, they were light and that's the size. I let them go for stupid cheap at the time because I was having a hard time finding the right size Michelin tires for them and just wanted to get a set of twists. Agency Powers website says they're made in the USA but a lot of people might question that. They were solid, but the edges on the inside of the spokes were a little sharp, they could have been machined a bit smoother They're really expensive brand new I believe.

Yup, pretty much all the forged mono block wheels out there are pricey so I'm sure those are as well. Seems like there are just a few actual wheel manufacturers that build wheels for most of the brands. Anyway, they look great on the car but I agree every 996T owner needs to have a set of twists on hand because they just look so right on these cars

I have a set of Twists and a set of Sport Technos which is what mine was built with.

I did post a pic already but anyway.

I like the design of the OZs...the color in combination to the color of my car...i cannot think about a better match. some greyish maybe.
