What are my options? I curious to here the forums opinion because increasing the overall weight of my p-car is not my goal. I am always looking to rid my self of additional weight, but fancy wheels with deep dish lips (4inch) seem to add weight. Is there anything out there that is agressive looking and weight efficient?

 

you should prob stick with 19's. try out fiske, and kinesis f110s. they are light and im sure some toher have other good suggestions.

 

yea those carbon/magnesium wheels are cool. would those be safe in terms of bending in a 20" form on an suv, bc magnesium is a very soft metal, isnt it?

 

the lip is carbon so i don't think u can bend it. they crack to be exact.

 

I thought it was the other way around, my bad. Yea i would worry about cracking, but nonetheless, they are a stunning wheel.

 

because they look great: polished deep dish lip with silver painted inner wheel AND they weigh less than ANY current production Porsche wheel. For 19 x 8 1/2" front wheel and 19 x 11 1/2" rear wheel for a C4S the weights are 18 lbs. 12 oz. front wheel and 20 lbs. 13 oz. rear wheel. These wheels are FORGED one piece light alloy as opposed to factory CAST wheels. Check out www.wheelenhancement.com to see the wheel and pictures of the wheel outfitted on customer cars.

BTW, Leon, where are thepics of your C4S thatyou promised ? !

 

No insult to anyone who has them but the Kinesis are to ordinary for me. I am looking for something a bit different. I have considered the Rinspeed, but I wonder how much they weight? I also had someone else on the forum tell me you need adapters for a 4S. I just wanted to get some ideas, again I really like the champion wheels but the rear dish is not that deep, and if I am going to give up the lip I might as well do the Rinspeed. By the way I did take some pics and will problably post over weekend. They suck because I took them in my garage.....raining a lot by the house this week..

 

Check the Champion website again - lots of very lightweight wheels. I have a set of the RS97's 19 inch on a C4S. I think the rear lip is 2 inches - maybe a little more. A lot of folks comment favorably when they see them. If you find one you like and don't like the polished look, Champion (and others) can paint or finish to your specs. Also Wheel Enhancement website has lots of pictures with the various wheels they sell. Good luck. I'm starting to collect wheels like shoes.

 

There is a new wheel from Champion Motorsport in 20".

To get a wheel with no lip I think I prefer the Rinspeed. Wow, now that I think of it it looks like the new 19inch wheel Porsche is doing special order. They tried to sell it to me when I got my car but I don't like the multi spoke wheels because they are a ***** to clean...

 

Rinspeed wheel is 28 lbs I've heard. And less for the front ones i'm sure.

 

If you are concerned with performance of you car why do you want 20" wheels? You will get less performance from the tires, add weight and personally they look silly on a true performance car. Stay with 19 or 18" and check out the many wheels already mentioned in thise thread.

 

You can find 20" wheels that weight the same as the factory 19" and even get a lip.. Just got to search a high end wheel shop.. I think GFG wheels are close to weight as factory and u can get a deep lip......

 

I agree 100%

20"s on a 911 = pure poser IMO

I'm happy to run 19"s on the street but now I'm looking for some 18"s for auto-x/track days.

 

damn i am going to be a POSER oneday
