    Hmm, not a fan of those wheels, personally. Don't like the spoke design and I think they look way too big. 19" is already rather exorbitant, but 20"? Looks like a Hot Wheels car.

    Ditto- rims seem to be stretching themselves out to far.

    The rims sizes are out of control. It really was no need to increase the size of the wheel arches to accommodate 19in wheels. On a 987/997, 18 inch rims give the visual effect of 17in because of the larger wheel arches and thicker tire profiles All because of this ridiculous move towards huge rims.

    The side sills don't seem to flow with the lines of the 987.

    It looks better on the 997 than on the 987.
