Finally one of my bigger hurdles with the car is over. Thanks to Geoff for all the help and wisdom on the wheel selection. What can I stress over now??

I should of remebered that from your banter with the wide 5 fuch look-a-likes. Dirty socks :lol:

I'm pretty excited as it's one of those things that was holding up the progress of the car. Now I have that figured out, I can sell what I won't be using and keep plugging along.

yup. imho, choosing the wheel & tire combo is one of the most important things to take care of when building a car and is also one of the toughest decisions to make. wheels can make or break a car.

I am going to clean them up, and if they need it, which I think they will, blast and powdercoat them the factory Porsche silver. Tires I think will be 205/45/16 in the front and 225/50/16 or maybe 55 series for the back.
