What DJ said! Those are amazing...
Will a 295/30/19 winter tire fit on the stock C4S wheel? If so, I might need these on the 911. I like these better than the LM-R and I don't want to do RS-GTs again. How muchy?

Here's the scoop.
BBS ordered all of the Porsche wheels for the US market without the laser etching… Germany sells the Porsche wheels in their market WITH the “Motorsport” etching.
The bigger than usual 5x130 bolt circle does not provide much room between the lug opening and the spoke area. The OE cap looks much nicer in the wheel without the etching. So, If any Porsche wheels in the US market have the writing on them, they were not purchased from BBS of America...
Here is a picture with the etching, that a customer sent me. If you look, the etching IMO is crammed into the area between the bolt holes and cap:
And here is another without, provided to me by BBS USA:
