20" Victor Wheels from Wheel Dynamics

Last week I bit the bullet and decided to get a set of Victor Wheels (Lemans) from Wheel Dynamics ( http://www.wheeldynamics.net) . Initially I was looking at the 19s, but I ended up getting the 20 inch package. Car is stock height. A few observations: - No rubbing - Great ride quality (the 18s with Rossos had a bumpier ride) Just wanted to share a crappy cell-phone pic...

nice, i got the same from them in 19" but had them painted all black. Overall a good experience dealing with them.

Nice but I would not lower it IMHO What are the dimensions including off-set? How much do they weigh too? Edit: I agree with Dell, bit too big for me also after I looked at them again. 19's and lowered is big enough.

Sorry, but those look so wrong on the 911. Too damn big. Look almost cartoon-like. However, with that said, the only thing that matters is your opinion and if that is something you like then you will love your P-Car. Just not my cup-o-tea.

19" rims look okay, but th 20" rims look a tad big for the car... I like the polished lip.

You could pull off DUBs on the 997, and even on that car you're stretching it. Your ride, your money. Thx for sharing anyways. Good to learn.

I like the look for now, and they're not welded on, so they can be changed later if I get sick of em. I'm not planning on lowering the car. I wasn't trying to invite a flame, really just wanted to post them so others could make an educated decision if they choose the same route. Cheers-

And don't take this the wrong way, but an educated decision would not lead to putting dubs on the 911.

Neither would putting a tribal tattoo on your arm, but hey, it's your arm! Oh, and don't take that the wrong way. At least I can remove my dubs. Lame attempt at humor... just kidding. I like my cheesy dubs!

zing!!

Yep you can change them at anytime and good to know you will not be lowering it, I'm sure you will have issues if you did. Absolutely and informative thread for others, but honestly you cannot expect to have only people that are looking at 20's or those looking for a source of wheels post replies in this thread. Gaurenteeed you are going to get replies from others with opinions on 20 inch wheels on Porsche's as well as this subject has been covered in the past, you are the first one I have actually seen do it, so congratulations. So the replies from myself, Ben and Dell are going to happen, but don't take it personally, you did what you wanted to do and your satisfaction is all that counts, you are not out to satisfy anyone else. I got similar responses when I posted pics of my car for the first time with 5-spoke chrome wheels (19's). I have since then changed the wheels not because of the input of others, but because I did not like them either.

Thanks waldrondigital, for taking the time to post the pictures. I have been looking into wheels myself so it is interesting to see that 20�s will fit. I know there was some individuals on this board asking about 20�s before so this should help those who may have had a question about them.

They look ok.. Ballin!

looks good man, would look even better with lowering springs. i have the victor lemans 19's and while i love them i have 1 complaint: WEIGHT! they're soooooo heavy lol. how's the ride comfort with the 20's? I had to back down the damping on my PSS9's with 19's because it was getting to be a bit much.

thx for noticing just like the ladies - i'm flattered

I like them.. the black center makes them look less...cartoony.. they do look good.

waldrondigital.. any research on how much larger rims affect speedo accuracy and gas mileage ? I'm going with similar looking 19" soon.

It's not the rim size that effects speedo. It's the inflated diameter of the tire that is what you are interested in. The factory ID is 25".

I dont think they look bad at all, I am surprised they fit. Dont let anyone tell you what you should like, I can tell you wont, but had to say it. To hell what people do, DO YOU!

i like them.... i was looking at 20's before, and didn't know whether they would fit or not........ thanks for sharing......

Ahhh...the beauty of smooth roads...can't imagine rollin' on dubs here in nyc, wouldnt last more than a day on these streets...im swervin' in and out just to avoid monster potholes on my 19's.

Anything over 18 is bling on a 996 IMHO.... There is zero performance advantage in 19's or 20's (only disadvantages). Then again my cup holders are bling too... At least the cupholder is light...

When you show us your trophy, prize money check, and the groupie love photos from racing your 911 on 18s, then you got something, but until then, 19s and blanging all day ever'day we hustlin'.

Awww, come on cuzzzz. Even a street racer like you knows lighter is better. Not only are the 19's and 20's going to be heavier, they force you to use a larger diameter tire which effectively makes your gearing taller. It is actually, amusing reading posts from guys with 19's criticizing the guy with the dubs. Kinda a pot calling the kettle thing, if ya know what I mean (it's an old school phrase). Don't let him out bling you!!! I'd bet you could get 21's or even some "double-dubs" on your car with some rubber band tires...............word! How'd I do??? jk Ben, I couldn't help myself.....

lmao, that is just wrong!!!!!!

you let your son borrow your skully? cool move pops lol and you must have a really sensitive **** if you can tell the gearing diff between your rv tire 18s v. the balln 315/25/19s on my chevy.. inside peanut butter outside jelly seven days a week and seven diff chevys

Hey bottom line is its your car do what you want, I dont like the look but who cares what I like...

I prefer going the opposit way. Got 13" wheels on mine.... plus a few other low profile mods.

Is that hood scoop functional?

You know it! It feeds my CAI. I was thinking of mounting the CAI on the roof, but that would have been tacky!

Hilarious...I was actually wondering what a porsche would look like on 13's while I was reading this thread! I'm thinking that the tires need a little whitewall to complete the ensemble...looks hot though. Hittin' the switches with the 3-wheel motion? anyone?

LOL today was a good day

Gota911: Looks like a monster garage creation. Product of 3 hillbillys and 2 west coast fabricators.....

Congrats....in my opinion it would look better lower....but may not fit...oh and you must have had bent rims to think 20s on WAY less rubber has a smoother ride...what you probably feel is there is no bends in the rims...yet....I think the car would look better with skirts and GT3 or TT front bumper.

First post, great forum. I like the way the 20's look- Here's mine.

From the side

I didn't know that 20' would look that good! I like them a lot...and you don't have to lower the P....think that if you do you will "rubb"

IMHO 20's do look too big on a P cars still. The rears not so bad, but the fronts look out of place. Lowering the car still is needed to give it that tuck look and more importantly bring the entire car back down to the ground, way too much clearance going on here. I do see problems with rubbing if you do lower it though, but I am not sure since I have not experienced 20's on my car or anyone else's. But each to there own and I won't say it is wrong, just not what I would do. Here's about the only Porsche with 20's that I like (the orange one that is): https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...ferrerid=54027

Spud - Welcome to Rennlist. Nice looking ride! I would suggest that you "harvest those pumpkins" on the front and install some clear side makrers. BTW - What year is your car and what options does it have?
