Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

The std wheels are my all time fave wheel so maybe just a colour change will required...now, where is that colour chart :grin:
Leading evidence: 'Replace will required...now, where is' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace will required...now, where is' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Assuming from the pics that these are all 18's:
LM's are a great wheel but from experience the visual effect of 18's will make them look smaller than a single piece alloy and you will have to be prepared for the upkeep and cleaning.
Facelift GT3 Alloys look good but lack a little "wow" factor.
Turbo II's are a timeless classic on the TT IMO. They would look great painted in body colour with a silver lip to give them an updated look. See pic attached for idea of how they would look...

Correct, all 18's :thumbs:
hmmmm, maybe the LM's need to be 19's :?
The std wheels are my all time fave wheel so maybe just a colour change will required...now, where is that colour chart :grin:
:thumb:
18's for go, 19's for show... The ride will obviously suffer a little on 19's as the tyre profile will be lower and the wheel heavier.
The standard wheels painted in body colour with a fine silver lip would look awesome IMO. :thumb:

This is interesting ... Personally I can't understand the love for the original wheels at all :? They are my 2nd least favourite wheel of all of Porsche's designs on a 996 (997T being the absolute worst IMHO )
FWIW, and I know I'm biased as I have the GT3 style turbo wheels on mine (with the 'spokes' in GT Silver) and 5mm spacers all round - however I think against your much darker blue, I would go for LM's in gold as mentioned above, with 5 mm spacers and probably in 19". Assuming you are not on standard, if the ride quality really does suffers too much then I'm sure the suspension settings can be adjusted to dial it out
Just my 2p
(flamesuit on!
