I like the Fox rims also, or one of the 5-spoked Porsche rims. The fewer spokes, the better! :D

My picks would be 19BBS, porscherims1 and porscherims7 - but wheels are certainly an individual choice! :agree:

I have to agree 100% with Dasdubber. I believe the aftermarket porsche wheels you are looking at are made by HRE. There website is HREwheels.com. Oh and by the way they are NOT cheap, But they are hand assembled and hand torqued. They are also a true 3-piece wheel. All the nuts, bolts, and washers that hold the wheels together are made of titanium.

BBS in 17s or 18s I think 19s will be really hard to work with.

What is the adress of the site where you can put all those porsche wheels, lower the suspension and everything on a Bug? By the way, I LOVE porsche wheels 1 and the ones used on the carrera 4s exclusiv.
