Thanks all! Fstcmpny - like those 448's on the M3. I am looking for a Alpine White M3 Vert and those wheels are a top consideration. I had 545's, 540's and 441's. I like the 448's the most I think.

Thank you fellow 6speeders. As soon as I get the TechArt front and rear pieces on I will go out and do a REAL shoot. Hand holding a camera and being lazy in finding a spot is not the way to shoot. IN Atlanta they get CRAZY when you shoot next to a building since 9/11. IBM building made me delete my pictures. They actually had two security guards come out and try to take possession of my camera. I told them I don't think so and they then wanted the CF card and I said Nope. So they said police or erase the pictures on the card. Well they won that battle

Love the look of those on the white TT. Did you have the 15mm spacers in the rear when you took the pics? I think the 20s look perfect on these 997, that why I have Avus 20 on mine..

Meaker thank you. Yes I had the 15mm spacers on when i took the pics. I have 7mm now and they are just right. In the pictures they look perfect but in real life they stuck out some past the fender and rubbed just slightly. I didn't want to roll the fenders so the 7mm worked out. The offset was 50+ but they do have a 46+ offset as well.
You have pictures posted of your Avus wheels?
Do you run Tail of the Dragon? I am not too far from your area. Let me know a warmer weekend when you guys have a meet.

PorscheAudio - I have the Elusive and Rare PS2's 245/30/20 and 325/25/20. I got them from my hookup Eric at www.supremepowerparts.com he is a sponsor on the M3 forums where I still hang out. Great guy. He somehow got me a set when none were had.
You can get some from my local wheel and tire place but they want a mint for them since they know its impossible to get. www.butlertire.com ask for Craig at the Doraville Store. Not sure if they want to release them or keep them for customers. Champion has a few sets from the last time I spoke to them but they were not retailing them outside of people who buy their rims.
