Beautiful wheels, but I have two issues with them:

1. They are heavy. They weigh approximately 4-5 lbs./wheel more than say the BBS wheels I'm considering. Unsprung weight is very important in car performance.

2. I'm not sure what year your car is, but I know that Porsche does not recommend using wheels bigger than 18" for 02 and older. Something to do with structural integrity of the car's welds.

Other than that, nice wheels.
