I'm shopping for a new set and like the large offset for the rear wheels. The RS98s are sweet but man that's a lotta dough. Any suggestions?

Any custom 3 piece wheel can come with large lips. Hre, modulare, adv, dpe, etc. what size are you looking for?

Personally i like the turbo "flare" that Porsche has created. I am not sure why i would want to bring it back in? Had a Lexus is 350 and looked amazing. But personally i feel that stock offset makes this car look wider in the rear.

Maybe better? Hopefully they keep the cars width, it needs to be! Rims do have an effect on the cars stance but we must embrace the wide stance in the rear not to be sexist on this statement. I like the “deep dish” on some car but, this car only need slightly a deep dish to it.
