A great place to window shop is Wheel Enhancement's website, where they have installed pictures for most of their wide selection of wheels (my former Targa is in there as is my 997S).

I ran the BBS LM on my 996 before I got the IFORGED.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

Hey guys........looking to pick up a new set of wheels.......I need to stick with 18's cause of the roads here in Montreal.....
Car is seal grey cab 996 02, porsche side rockers, all kind of stock....looking to dress it up a bit...nothing to wild.....hot and classy......any ideas or recommendations.....pics of what you guys gave would be great even if they are 19's.....thanks your time and helping me out. Ted
after market only....i have the 5 star 18's which are very nice for stock wheels....but i am looking to dress her up a bit.....trying to find small details to add....i like it simple.....but love hot wheels.....what do you think about a skirt for the back? i dont like spoilers or wings.....but would like that lowered effect behind the back wheels..... or maybe a new back bumper that has that look incorporated into it....what do you think? thanks
If Richard would ever post pics of his new HRE's those are a hot item as well as the BBS RS-GT like on Todd's Targa and Kirb's 996SC. If I was picking up a set of aftermarkets, the BBS RS-GT or LM would be my choice.
ever see a similar car with the OZ racing superlegerra 3 piece?if so how did they look? are original porsche center caps available for the OZ or the BBS ones? thanks Ted
BBS or OZ is a good wheel. Very lightweight and strong. I ran the BBS LM on my 996 before I got the IFORGED. Though I think for the price $2900 for a set of nice custom Iforged wheels is definitely good. I say OZ or Iforged. PM me for wheel and tire combos.
wow....now we are getting somewhere....can i get the model names etc. of the last 3 pics....they all look good...also if you would not mind sharing the prices that would be great as well...thanks in advance....
what is opinion of hyper black/e/w polished lip 10 spokes on black 996. I don'thave them yet, but they are on the way. I have already paid for them so i hope I like them
If you like them, the BBS RS-GT wheels in Diamond Black (same as itzkirb's) look super with Seal Gray (I put them on my former Arctic Targa), and the price is better than some wheels such as HRE (although they were in short supply a couple months ago). A great place to window shop is Wheel Enhancement's website, where they have installed pictures for most of their wide selection of wheels (my former Targa is in there as is my 997S).

BTW, this will leave me with a set of 18 x 8 ET52 and 18 x 10 Et65 factory polished turbo twists with decent front cont sport contact tires and marginal rearmatching rubber. wheels have only minor scratches or scuffs from 10 to 12k miles, no curb rash. There is even an extra rear wheel. I bumped one in parking garage and bought a replacement. All are factory wheels, not knock offs i will trade for some decent 17s with Boxster offsets, most any type, but prefer Porsche wheels. My boxster wheels are in pretty bad shape. Boxster is a 97 and I have been repeatedly advised not to put 18s on it. They are 996 wheels anyway and would require spacers.
i like the champions....are they 3 piece with a very deep lip? once i get new wheels i guess i would consider getting rid of my sotck 5 star ones...they are in perfect condition.....my car is always in imacualte condition inside and out.....keeps my sanity.....always have to have projects...let me know if you would be interested in buying them....are the chamions tough to clean? Anyone ever see OZ 3 piece deep dish on a porsche? i saw them on a silver one....not sure about seal greay....and anyone know if porsche center caps fit on the OZ's?? i can see the champions fit the caps.....are they the same colour as the wheel or the center caps different in colour? thanks in advance.....
