Yup, I regret it too. Should of just kept it and put in the warehouse but I was convinced that "I didn't need it". It was like driving a hammer... Not as fast as the 992 but just different.

I typically take the 911 out at night, because I can't stand driving in traffic with it.

I'm with the silver crowd, never really liked black wheels, and the last ones are the best to me.

side note, you do a great job photoshopping the wheels in and matching them to the photos exposure/appearance.

BBS RE-MTSP in Weissgold….this might be a contender.

Bringing this thread to a close - I ordered the BBS RE-MTSP in Porsche Weissgold. It's an aluminum version of the Weissach magnesium wheels. Should look like this...

Aftermarket these days are tricky, as it very quickly can cheapen the look of a vehicle. I always vote for the best OEM wheel out there, still looks best.

But I always make an exception for BBS wheels

You can get the S101 in in their forged FMR-X barrel now, making it a 2-piece. S101SC is newer styling.

522M and 527M look really good on the 991.

R101LW is the lightest wheel HRE makes (they have the weight for the 991 fitment on their website.)

Classic 300 looks pretty fantastic, and always looks insane with flush/lowered cars.

Also worth thinking about: RC103 looks amazing in centerlock and it's nicely priced. Same with the RC100, and the new 520M. They look awesome.

No, I bought sight unseen from Las Vegas. Ceramic brakes, carbon buckets, extended leather, deviated stitching, PPF, CPO.
