I can't decide which wheels I like better... (pix)
I must say that i've been a fan of the 'twisties' for a long time now, but I see these 5 spoke replica porsche wheels under the twisties, and I wonder what would look good on my 70.
Anyone have any pix of the latter wheels? I've looked up to page 10 on the member's rides, but to no avail.... http://www.wheelenhancement.com/inde...elDetail&id=39 http://www.wheelenhancement.com/inde...elDetail&id=34

I think both look good. I tend to favor #34 only because I haven't seen it used yet on a GLer.

My woman likes the twisties, but I'm a big fan of the other one's and the porsche boxter wheelies too...see pic
Before you ask...Yes...it's photoshopped..I have to do it before I try the real thing! |

So i'm talking with john at wheelenhancement.com right now, looks like i'm gonna have to go with the twisties, as a set costs around 1 g, and the 993 targas are like 2500 a set!!!
Can't go with that wheel jsut yet ehehhee. I'm gonna go for 17x7.5 and 17x9, but i'm having a problem with him.... I told his my modifications, and I took all the measurements that he needs, but he can't tell me if the wheels are conna be in the range of offsets I have to play with. He told me the early (or late, i can't remember) offset would be outside of the fender (But I have ccc wider fenders 2"!!!) then he said the other one would be too far in (Hit the wheel well) and I may need a spacer. My mods are as follows: 1970 standard bug Rear: -944 trailing arm -993 turbo (big reds) rear brakes w/calipers -3" wider ccc fender -Koni reds (came with the car) front -993 turbo (big reds) front brakes w/calipers -2" wider ccc fenders -Koni reds Anyone done this conversion, and know about these wheels? Any help would be great, maybe a link? I wanna overnite these wheels, cause I got a show comin up on july 15th (Day after my b-day) (Btw thanx for fixing the pix) -Mike PS..I can post pix if you want PPS also he has no idea on tire sizes for a 17x7.5 and a 17x9, if someone has a suggestion for that also, that would be great! -Thanx again |

Yikes... always the coolest stuff has the highest price!
Im gonna go for cup 2's eventually.. seems they are always called something different tho. Had a friend order from wheel enhancement and they came perfect so no worries about the quality. Im sure both wheels would look awesome.. we just have expensive taste |
