Been around a lot of Porsches and a lot of wheels, I am not a fan of any aftermarket jobbies on a Porsche (with the exception of Vertini Magic Concave) most just look to me like a CAT D car or trying to hard. Porsche of all car manufactures spend a lot on R&D and more importantly looks, and they do get some OEM wheels so right.

Gen 2 Turbo's look so right !!

did you sell you magics when you sold the 996 mate or did they go with the car
 
Hi Phil they are in the shed :thumb:

Don't look quite so good on the 997 vs the Gen 2 turbos :thumb:

Was going to use them for track days, but the Allen key bolts did my head in.

There is lies a big issue. Its a very fine line.

The lobster claws for all their negative publicity are amongst the lightest of the OEM I believe, but not the most popular.

I like them a lot I just don't think they work well with the Aerokit.

no probs mate they are nice alloys, I have just brought Skos, AG rugers as an option for winters and to give me a chance to try another alloy for a change although it will be hard to beat the magics, I often see guys taking pics of just the alloys sod the car they are on :floor: :floor:
 
Guys, guys... guys?

Is this it? Some lovely wheels for sure but no one else using non OEM wheels?

What are opinions on all of these flow formed semi forged wheels brands like ispriri etc?

So I have managed to cut a deal on these. Would bolt straight on and without spacers but decent enough offsets to run a 305 rear without issues.

What do you guys think?
