Cayman S Project with HRE P40s @ SharkWerks

This 2006 white Cayman S project came into us with the rather plain stock 18 inch wheels. To kick things off with on this project the owner opted for a set of light-weight 19 inch HRE P40 wheels.

The car arrives:


A close-up of the stockers before they come off (and will be retained for track use):


And off they come:


And on go the HRE's:


The end result of the more aggressive 19-inch HRE P40 wheels finished in stain charcoal and wrapped with Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tires:



More to come in the future....

Great wheels never need excuses. Examples:








The HRE P40 fits this category.

HREs always look great, no matter the car. Looks particularly nice on the Cayman though, but needs a bit of a drop.
