I use a microfiber glove when washing - takes about 20 sec.

I've been considering going to the turbo hollow wheels or even the GT2 wheels as a full time wheel and using the originals as backup (track maybe).

Considering new wheels

Use wider gt2 wheels

Any drawbacks to using the wider GT2 wheels?

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I really like the look of my OEM wheels (I know, boring, right?). I've been considering going to the turbo hollow wheels or even the GT2 wheels as a full time wheel and using the originals as backup (track maybe). I think I should get some (puny) handling benefits with the lighter hollow turbo wheels, but was wondering if the GT2 wheels with 315/30 18's would be even better. Any drawbacks to using the wider GT2 wheels?

POST 2Original post

What do the GT2 wheels look like? Do you have a pic? Also, what is difference in cost?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

They look identical, just wider. Not sure on cost, still just kicking the idea around.

POST 4Original post

Oh...I'm not a fan of those wheels. I prefer the Fikse Profil 10 or BBS RS-GT or Champion RG5.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I've always loved the turbo twists, even before I owned a p-car. My all time fav would have to be BBS LM's but the cleaning is a deal breaker.

POST 6Original post

I like my thin 5 spoke carrera wheels. Easy to clean and very light. The big opening make the wheel look big. Many have asked if they are 19s.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I agree. I have always loved 5 spokes (since I got some Momo 5spokes back in 1988 for my M3). The Porsche Carrera is the best looking of the bunch IMO. Takes me no time to clean. I use a microfiber glove when washing - takes about 20 sec. a wheel. Just wondering if the hollow turbo wheels will gain me anything because of lower unsprung weight.

POST 8Original post

well the Champion RG5 wheels are the lightest of the bunch - a difference you'll feel... a friend of mine has them and says the car accelerates faster... they also look smokin!
