The wheels look great!

I've always wondered what it would be like to remove all of the fasteners on a set of wheels like yours.

What is the torque spec just out of curiosity?

Thanks,

ddb

I guess by fasteners you are referring to the chrome rivets? I'm not sure. I just made them as tight as possible without stripping them. I had to use an allen-key to remove them and then put them back after powder coating.

nice. One of the finest 986's on the forum. Those stripes look good on your car, havent been a fan of them on other cars. They tie in your LEDs. That lip is phat, just keep it polished

Sorry if I am a bit ignorant, seems like everyone except me knows what make and model these rims are except me. LOL. Anyone care to let me know?

Would be great if these rims were light weight too. I like black ( car is black ) and would probably get a set in matte black or gun metal .. i think that with the fat chrome lips, should look very nice.

Very nice car btw.

Nice job. I probably would have never picked out those wheels myself. But seeing them on your car they look great!! As far as the calipers, I sent mine out last year and had them painted red by a company in NJ called PowerTech. they did an awesome job. But I have to tell you, I almost wish I had them painted yellow instead. Just a thought in case you were considering it too.

So that was you. Yeah, I did that on purpose, parking across from you. I always park next to a boxster if I see one. There was also a red one when I left across from me. I went to see Doomsday. Horrible movie. It was like watching Mad Max meets Robin Hood. If anyone else has seen this movie they know what I mean.
