Keep the Twists for Concourse Events and the Mesh Ones for daily use. Great car by the Way!. Lower it a little bit.

BBSs are always better, no ifs ands or buts.

Keep 'em both, whichever is wider/lighter for the track and put some R compounds on them, street rubber on the other.

I guess I can't get the "gold" BBS wheels out of my mind. I don't use "ugly" in a post unless the thread starter ask for opinions.

They may be made in Germany but Porsche didn't put them on their cars for a reason...........

Porsche has had stock wheels made by BBS several times. Not really important though - everyone is entitled to their own opinion. However, it should be noted that BBS has set the standard for quality since the 70's.
