Post pics of a 997 with 19" wheels only!!

Most of are looking for aftermarket wheels for our 997's.. and after looking on the net for the perfect looking wheel, we come to another road block; shall we buy these wheels in 19"s or 20"s? and after thinking and going back and forth a million times, we concluded the following:

19" wheels:
- you wont sacrifice the ride and handling with 19" wheels
- you save alot of money because you can use your stock tires with 19"s
- they dont look as good as the 20"s

20" wheels:
- the car looks terrific with 20"s no doubt about that

so most of us opt to go to a 19" set-up..

therefore lets make this thread helpful for those wanting to install 19"s but are worried about it not looking that great..

I think OEM 19s from porsche are the best looking rims... for me aftermarket rims on a porsche is a big no, no.

yeah i have the Carrera S type II, and they are nice dont get me wrong, but i beleive if u r in the market for some aero stuff like a front bumper, side skirts, and a rear spoiler its a must to change ur stock wheels.. even if u stick to 19"s..
