New Wheels 996TT

[vipergreen]

Tyres are getting low, so I'm thinking of changing the wheels.

I've currently got Sport Techno's which I'd keep but quite fancy a GT3 type wheel with black centres, one thing I hate is when the wheel lip protudes the tyre so it counts out a good few (why are they like that)

Anyhow I like this sort

Will they fit ? and take 225 & 295 tyres.

Or should I look for 19 inch.

Interested in what others have done.

I think I'm trying to distract myself from buying another car as the RS is here in 3 months and I really like this car and will keep it

Many thanks

Formula's are a great looking wheel with trhe added exclusivity of being Porsche specific , now those with Black Centre's would look awesome...

Is it me or does the car look a bit 'stilty', almost needs to be lowered to pull those off...

In an ideal world with ideal roads it would be lowered 15-20mm.....unfortunately the roads near me simply don't allow me to do it.

I can imagine that front splitter having regular checkups

19" techart are a fanatastic looker, my favourite.


Bear in mind that the std 18's probably cant be beaten on weight and ride comfort suffers on increased diameters. Have you considered 7mm wheel spaces to make things a little more aesthetically pleasing? Come to think of it dont the spacers add to unspring weight?

I think these are superb on a TT , genuine Porsche items so the offsets are correct for the application, best news is they are unmarked and available immediately with tyres ! Mail me if required.

They look like 997 GT3 alloys to me ?
