That's the wheel I'm considering. Love the look on the 911. I see you're in Vancouver. Who did you deal with on the wheels and tires? I have the 5mm spacers on my wide body Targa and I see that the offset of the CH seems perfect. Do you also have spacers?

Cheers
Greg

Very nice! Have you thought about lowering your car a bit to reduce the gap between the tire and fender? I have Techart springs on my C2S and here is pic what it looks like lowered with the CH-R's

Did the research myself on the design and ordered them through Weissach Performance Ltd. (604)738-3911. Speak with Chris who heads up the parts dept. Found that their price was very competitive over ordering them myself and knew they would handle any issues well if a problem were to occur.

Considered using spacers but was wisely advised to put wait and see how I liked the look after increasing to 12" rear. Glad I waited as they are almost flush to the outside which is what I was looking for.

Btw, these are CH-R, not to be confused with the entry model CH.

Got mine from Weissach also. The CH-R's fit right to the edge of the fender on the narrow body.

Would look great lowered a couple of inches, thanks. Kept the original center caps off of my lobster claws for the OEM look. Will use the original wheels with my winters.

I have seen this car before and after, huge improvement! Chris @ Weissach is great to deal with, most of the mods on my car are through them.

+1, looks so much better lowered. Having a nice pair of shoes really changes the looks of the Porsche's.

Bbs-ch-r

OLG: Love the look of your new wheels. They are the ones I am concidering.
Ricardo Canada:I also have a C4S but it is an 09' and comes from the factory with a 20mm drop, so I wonder if it can be/should be lowered more.
Any thoughts appreciated.

Thanks. My Targa is actually from Weissach so I know Chris and Stuart well, as well as Asgar. Great people. I never thought to ask them about BBS so thanks for heads up!

Cheers
Greg
