I see thousands of wheels for sale. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) I am finding surprisingly few options in the sizes I need.
Can you please give me some suggestions on where to look. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) If you want to help me spend my money. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) 5 X 130 Porsche Bolt Pattern Front - 19" x 8.5". ET 55 Rear - 19" x 10". ET 42 Color - Black. *(5 or 10 spoke preferred. Patterns of 7 or 8 are not right for 5 lug wheels. A polished lip would be nice. Lighter is always better.) |

Well, I sure know a lot more about wheels than I did a few weeks ago when I started this thread. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon22_2.gif)
The HF-5's that I liked are not available in my 19" sizes with the beefy 5 X 130 pattern. Dave, (himself a Boxster Spyder owner), agreed that 20" would be unacceptable for ride quality. I placed an order for a custom set of the Vossen HF-2's in Gloss Gold. Now the hard part - I have to wait 8+ weeks for them to be manufactured.
