Now you know why God invented qtips (to properly clean alloy wheels!)

I like the first set of wheels a bit better, but also understand the cleaning issue.

Henrik beautiful car - yes that's my car - I use the carrera III for the summer tires - freshens up the car quite a bit - but I have to say the offset is a little off for the 996 so like you I added spacers - in my case I only went 5mm but 7mm would probably look nicer

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.

Just bought my second 996, my ninth 911.
Well kept 2002 C4 with 80k miles. Still winter here in Sweden so I have to wait.
Typical car you should drive all year compared to my previous 911s, but I use mine from April to October.
I do like the Seal grey, nice 8 and 10" Gt3 wheels but a mess to keep clean. Just sold the wheels and found a set of Carrera IIIs.
So I will continue my slow walk up each generation. Planned for a 997, but it can wait
Congratulations on the nice, shiny new Cab!
Mine is a C4 Cab, 2002.
I went to Excellence Mag and ordered the issue that featured the new [in 2002] Carrera. All of the improvements from the previous 996 were listed in the article.
There were some substantial changes from 2001 to 2002.
The issue is #106 from November 2001.
The back issues are $10.00 [US] each but well worth it because you can learn quite a bit from reading the article.
Soon my new Carrera III wheels will be on.
Did a full refurbish on all four myself. Pretty satified before clearcoat so far.Ordered code 9A1 on cans and put some time on prep work and a thin layer of primer. Venting our cellar now since my family is wondering what I am doing. Too cold outside
Just got them on yesterday. Happy with the results. The GT3s are nice as said earlier but a pain to keep clean. What do you think?
Painted them myself after ordering color coded cans 9A1 and then clearcoat 3-4 layers.

Enjoy !
