Wow, really nice! I love how the wheels look.
Are they Original Porsche GT3 rims? Do they fit without modifications?

Congratulations!

Ya they are 19". Needed spacers on front and back to make more flush.

fyi...you can often elimate the wobble from non-hubcentric spacers if you do your best to torque in a star pattern with the wheel completely off the ground so as to avoid misalignmnet when you do the final torque (for which the tires should be planted on the ground). On my old 911 if I torqued with the wheel on the ground I would get a vibration everytime. good luck.
