18" turbo twists

98 arctic silver
8.5 x 18 225/40/18
10 x 18 265/35/18

I've got an itch lately to go to 19s
Carrera 2 II's to be specific, they are on order and will arrive next week, now Im second guessing the decision, especially with Millers Crossing DE approaching.....

my 18 rufs

8 fronts 10 rears (spacers f/r).
Had hoped they where a little lighter but not too bad.
They are actually made by OZ (italy).

Those wheels look better on our 986 than on the cayman!

Thanks I was between the Carrera S Wheel but at $565 delivered from Wheels & Caps the Cayman the price diffence was enough to put a big dent in the cost of litronics.
