Oh come on, the 911 Sports Classic is still a 997............
Or were you talking about the old old 911s with Fuchs wheels?
I think they look cute, :) plus something different than every other 997 with Champion Motorsports, HRE or any other 'in' wheels.
I liked the BBS FI wheels too, but they are impossible to get here.
Same for the GT3 wheels, but there are quite a few 997TT with them on.
Just came back from Vegas with pocket full of money courtesy of Mr. Wynn, and the first thing that crosses my mind was to spend it on my Porsche. My wife wasn't too happy about spending on the car instead of her though. Wait till she finds out I might get a SLS.
Also bear in mind the following:
The Porsche Sport Classic wheel, as Porsche calls their Fuchs rip-off, costs you about 5.900 Euro for cars with TPMS.
A set of ORGINAL Fuchs rims is yours for 3.800 Euro, rims only that is, without the tyres.
So the original Fuchs wheel should be cheaper and it is forged (the Porsche rip-off is not AFAIK), so it should also be lighter.
The secret of life is to admire without desiring.

I found that out too. :)
I don;t need the tire package, I just need the rims as I just put some new Bridgestones on not long ago, LOVED them btw, and Fuchs can custom paint the interior color with the polished lip.
I was thinking re-using the OE wheels as winter wheels when I get around to order some winter tires.

To me, they just don't fit anything beyond the G-model (3.2 Carrera)
