Opinions on work wheels

What up guy's

As most of you know, i'm getting a white GT3 very soon and i'm trying to make a decision on some wheels. I wanted to get BBS LM's for it, but i heard there are some issues with a straight bolt on fitment.

This wheel is my second choice. 18'' work brombacher mesh in gold. Just wanted to see if anyone had experience with these wheels.
Any info would help!
Thanks

Plus does anyone have some pics of them on porsche's?

raffi is infamous around these parts
the white does look nice with the gold wheels. probably the only color that gold wheels would work with.
how about the forgeline wheels in the for sale section, he listed them for widebody fitment , how wide are the gt3 wheels?... since you are looking at stepped lips I liked these too.

The wheels from the widebody 996's don't work on the 996 GT3's.

Thanks

Work wheels are great. I am a big fan of them. I know Bill@rennworx sells work if you wanted to look into that.

PM me if you are interested in Works though and I may be able to get you a better deal on them.

I like Work wheels on Japanese cars (350Z, S2000, Evo, etc), but not so much on Euro cars. I'd stick w/HRE, BBS, etc. for your GT3.
