Wow! Love the color of the car too. The seal grey really looks nice with the wheels... Congrats.

I was hoping to get the same response from my wife when I showed her for the first time and she said, "I can't tell the difference between these and your old ones." Owell, better than the third degree on the $$$ I spent on them

Heya Stig.. sorry to go off topic but where'd you take that pic in your avatar if you don't mind me asking? Looks like a spot I know off of Route 1...

Very nice wheels. How about BBS, I think they look hot but I rarely see them on 997's.

The difference between normal and sport is less noticeable with the springs.

Okay, now that you have convinced me, I am going to go for the F110's. Can anyone here tell me what is the best configuration to go for? I have an 06 CS2 and while the sport design wheels are nice, I am ready for a change... I am in the northeast but keep the car in the garage for the winter... I currently have sport design 19's with PZero Rosso's but I've been told that Michelin PS2's are the way to go... Looking for any offset/spacer and tire size (profile and width) and polish advise... Any estimates on how much I should be spending would be very much appreciated... And recommendations on where to purchase in the greater NYC area would be helpful... tku..

I ordered mine from Wheel Enhancement.

Just tell them what car its going on. You won't need spacers.

I have PS2s on my car and I like them.

IMO they are the best looking rim available for the 997.

The F110's are in my opinion the best looking wheels I've seen for the 997. And mine is the same color, so this is killing me to look at. The ride height helps a lot also. Nice!

I know it matters but I'm not sure what has to be different on the Rim for TPMSR...

The F110's are a sweet rim, looks&performance. I like the Fiske Profil 10's.

I just left NYC/Westchester and you are right. Living in the desert has made me forget what a REAL pothole feels like. Maybe 17 inch rims would be better.
