the mesh that you are looking for are called Senekas. just go to the Iforged website and look up the Seneka line.

Nice. But with those large 245 x 19 in the front, how does your steering feel?
Alignment specs?

Just curious.

actually its phenominal. so much grip and handling with the wider tires is great as well. if i got 18s i would have had 235 in front and 285 in back so the way i look at it is, the rears are the same as the 18s with 19s on, and the fronts give me 10 mm more of tire to play with. so 10 mm wider is not such a big deal to me. im sure that im more succeptable(spelling?) to tramlining, but that happens with every car when you widen the tires a sufficient amount. i look at it as, id rather have the better grip in the wider tires and be prone to tramlining than have the small tires. im sure most guys on here run 235-245 in front and 285-195 in back on narrow bodies 996s with 19s.

Looks "ok" thus far...but i think those wheels make the car BEG for a body-kit of some sort....at least a front lip and side skirts....and DEF a slight drop.

They are AMAZING wheels...but i feel as if they've "exposed" the weakness' of your car.

Not hating, just throwing my $.02 out there.......but regardless of what my Dumb-azz says, u still have a 911 sitting on iForged wheels so life is GOOD.

Interesting. And thanks for the info. DonĀ“t worry about the alignment specs if you donĀ“t have them available just now, I was just curious.
IĀ“m on 18Ā“s myself, and have no immidiate plans to go bigger. Handling is more important than grip to me. But those 19Ā“s do look good! :-)

The wheels look great. SIDE BAR: I noticed that you have the clear reflectors or the side of the car as well. Did you do that yourself is there a DIY guide for that? Thanks in advance...

Oh yeah, Those wheels are HOT!!!!

Thank you! the side signals are actually smoked signals. they really look so much better when you get rid of that orange that comes stock. i dont have a DIY guide as they are pretty simple to just take out and in. def worth it!

Thanks... I'll take a second look. Maybe I just need to get under the car and unscrew them from the back.

The side markers just clik on and off, no tools or anything. CouldnĀ“t be easier.
(Its in he manual, since you need to remove them to change the bulbs.)
