Wow, Travis, it looks fantastic! Perfect car.

What is up with that SUV peeking out of the corner on one of those pics?

Carrera 3 wheels have small webs on the edges of the spokes and they're heavier. I expect that Bill V. has the exact specs.

The spokes are shaped a bit different too and the center section seems more recessed on the Carrera 3s. didn't know they were heavier...

997 update of the lightweight Carrera 5-spoke. Looks like they also come in an 11" wide version.

It would be nice to see the weights.
Are the offsets the same for the 8's and 10's (50 and 65) ?
Does BBS OEM them for Porsche like the MY02s?

A friend of mine gave it to me for my daily driver. I gave up the old Dodge Diesel. He also has some kind of cool Red Porsche too that he's leaving next time for my track days.
Joking aside; that's one cool SUV!

Yes they are BBS. The offsets are 57 front and 58 rear. As far as the weight I'm not sure, but I think I remember it being posted somewhere.

Pics look good, but it looks unreal in person. The sound that comes from it that adds a lot.

We need to have a caliper painting day on the lift.

A little late - but your car looks great, Travis. You know there was some "group buy" for 4 sets of Speedlines here on RL. I think there was one set not spoken for yet. They are calling to you.
