Can I get your help.. I'm looking to get a second set of rims for my 997TT GT Silver. Which manufacture makes the strongest rims, I've already replaced the Benz rims on my CLS 55 from street use.. I don't mind spending the cash but just to have them look good yet get flattened from std street use. Brite silver edge with Black spokes.. One piece, mono block, two piece, etc? Your advice is welcomed..

 

Have you considered HRE monobloks or wheels from Forgeline?

 

I'd lean towards BBS. A set of the new LM-Rs would look absolutely amazing on a 997TT...

 

I'm looking at HRE p40's or GT3RS wheels on my GT Silver that will be here a couple of months. I have been hoping to see some pics of those wheels(not black) with that color 997tt. good luck in your search---post pics

 

This is my GT Silver 997TT with GT3RS wheels.

 

OOH THAT LOOKS GOOD! It will be hard to look better than that.

 

You might want to look at GP7's from the links on the right. I have a set of the dark grey on my slate grey tt. you can also check RUF if you want a very strong wheel.

 

i find the Ruf 5 spokes to be real tough in comparing to the OZs for example,you can get them to paint the wheels most Porsche's colors

 

those RUF wheels are nuts...are they 20's?

 

LPM that is one great lookin' turbo, love the wheels (ala Atomic80), would do the same. Nice to see not everyone is ga-ga for ceramics, too.

 

If you want light(you should!), think Champion, GP7, BBS Motorsport, new HRE monoblocs, CCW, and the Dymags. The rest are all going to be a performance penalty.

 

Thanks for all the responses, I really don't want to deal with fasteners, rivets and bolts that would be a part of a multi-piece rim. I had a set of Porsche Sport Design II on my '99C4 just too much work to keep clean..

The shots are helpful that '08 with the GT3 RS rims are sweet!

Jump on a set of Champions/Dymags/etc. then... Definitely go with something Forged, regardless.

 

I agree. Kinesis F110 and any Champion wheel would be great for weight-savings and also superior strength. They are all one-piece forged wheels. Here is a pic:

 

If you are looking for strong and lightweight, please feel free to contact us here at Champion Motorsport. We have been in the one piece forged wheel business for years now and would love to help you with your decision.

Here are some sample images of Turbos for you to look at. Plenty of other designs available. We also have a Magnesium wheel available for the 997 Turbo (the MS61) and also a forged aluminum version of the MS61 called the RS171.
