+1. The Carrera Sport wheels are also a half inch wider front and rear than the other Porsche wheel options. Same size tyres at the front, bigger (305) rears. Improved grip/handling as well as looking good and filling the arches better.

Always the Classics. Simple, timeless, easy to clean.

When i specced a new 997 c2s I went Carrera Sport. But of the choice you have I'd go for the star shape, much easier to clean and less fussy looking.

Another vote here.

(The other two are horrible - sorry, but I know you know good wheels as I liked both styles you had on your 996t)

Another vote here for the Carrera Sport, I've got them on mine too smile

Of the two options though the OP mentions, I'd take the latter one.

I'll vote 'star' (Carrera S II?) of the two options given.

I also quite like the Carrera Classics and those Carrera Sports.

I'd personally opt for these too as first choice!
Second choice would be th multi spokes in the OP's first picture, although I bet they are a b***er to clean!

And another. I have the C Sport and don't find them too bad to clean. The extra 1/2" makes the rear view better too, IMO.
