Thanks for pics Monty.

I read your previous post wrong... thinking you got 4-spoke design wheels, as opposed to more conventional 5-spoke Porsche OEM wheels.

Now I was thinking 16" tires are cheaper, but apparently much more choice with 17" snow tires and most at less cost... tire rack web turned out only one Michelin snows for 16"...

I'm also thinking now of making my 17" twists winter wheels and get another sets of 17" for summer..
