I was looking for it for a long time in used cars.

Suggestion
I've got a set of 18's 295/30(track) and 19's 305/25 19 (street) but find the ride a little harsh with the lower profile tires on the 19's , however if you're running 20" with the same side wall as 18's that would make a huge different in comfort and I would love to run 20's too but acording to my calculations that would make the tire diameter a whopping 8% (2") bigger than stock which means 26mm more in the wheel well...
Leading evidence: 'Use cars' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Run 20"' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt.

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.

Thanks for the pics Nine_Eleven. Any non HDR shots with more lighting? I'm trying to see all the curves and lines of your kit since I've only seen a few on actual customer cars in the USA. Any front shots?
Quote:
Lately I am thinking the same. Most of them will be gone beaus engines went bad. And, after all, there were only available for a few years. Yes they use the same lights than Boxters, but that is a technicallity. Maybe I am full of it anyway
Here's my first pic of my newly acquired 1999 996 C2. Built date: April 1998 with only 43K on the clock. PPI came back excellent; $$$ well spent. Me very happy.
WOWWWWW I can't believe I actually missed this thread, man that's a lot a nice rides!!!!!!!
Props to redridge for best thread ever, way to go Ferdinand!!!
Here's my P. ride, it looks a little "bare" from behind without the C4S lettering but I do have it on the car now (red S) no pics of it yet though...
Cheers,
Sid.

The reason I switched bumpers is on the TechArt I could not find an ideal place to install my Parking Aid modules. If you look closely on the Turbo bumper you can see the modules installed in the upper right/left grill areas. I may go back to the TechArt tho because it provides better downforce on the front...
Quote:
Not to butt in.... If you look at pic you see the two little circles in middle bumper, same color. Those are parking sensors. What Fly is saying is that because the Techart bumper is basically two huge air scoops, he did not identify a good place to drill the bumper and place the sensors that must be pointing forward to be effective.
Quote:
Yeah, I understand that part but wanted the specifics on parking aid/sensors and why it's even needed for the front. I could see it making more sense for the rears.

I actually did. I was looking for it for a long time in used cars. But I finally found it. Bought it instantly. It was 133.00 credits I believe.

Wowww 245 in front, that's pretty wide.
Are you running 8.5 or 9" rims?

Outside of the speedo running 8% faster do you have any rubbing, abs or computer issues?
Thanks for all the info!!

I'm the FNG (frickin' new guy), this is my 5th Porsche, 1st Turbo 911 and 1st Cabriolet. Just bought it, had a PPI done by Gulf Performance (thanks Vinnie), had it shipped from sunny Forida to snowy Utah.
The Interior is all Porsche Exclusive Options and I searched for over 6 months to find a one-off Turbo X50 cab that lights me up!
Nice to be here,
Ted

wow, that's a lot of porsche options there - looks like someone just checked everything on the list!. i hate to think what the original sticker price on that one was.....
Yeah I couldn't believe it was all factory, until I got the window sticker;
$34,125 Exclusive Options, Total sticker price $168,160.
It's a little different than most but I really dig it and looks much cleaner in person. Although this is the first time I've heard of door pocket lighting and lowered seats (-10mm).

I had CCW make two sets using the same offsets found on the GT3 Wheel. Fronts 8.5X18 ET 40 Rears 11X18 ET 63. Hoosier R6 245/35/18 and 295/30/18. They have held up very well and are easy to clean. Like Black the best for track use
Here is some photos of my 03 996 cab. Just finished the ROW M030 Suspension, as well as the painted console and Fabspeed Maxflo Exhaust. I will hopefully get some nicer shots once I give it a good polish.

I have similar aftermarket rims with black caps bought separately. Mine are 19X8.5 ET52 F + 19X10 ET 50 R.

No spacers required. In fact, the rears sit about 1/2" outward. Aggressive, and I can live with it. The rims in question appear to have the correct ET or offset. OEM: ET65 NB or ET40 WB. Just my two cents.
