New Wheels!

Nothing fancy here, but I'm sporting new wheels and shoes! Check out the pix!
I went with Carrera Lights (replica - scoff if you want) and BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW (they look really mean!).

Do you mind letting us know how much you paid for the replicas?
I have seen them on eBay for around $1k.

These are the ones you see on eBay "Fits Boxster Without Spacers." Buy it Now for $979+shipping. The quality appears pretty good. We'll see how they hold up. The center caps match but look cheapish, so I may replace those with my authentic caps (if they fit -haven't checked yet).

Wow, those are some wicked looking tires! They are more aggressive looking than the tires on my daily driving SUV.

rims are sweet! Those are the meanest looking tires I have ever seen...it looks like they might double as rally tires!
