Who's got the coolest wheels...post with pics

Ok, since I've started this thread, I need to proclaim that I indeed have THE coolest wheels. I figured if Bannlist has this thread going, we should too.

Fikse FM5 Anodized 18" centered wheels, 245/35 front on a 9", 285-30 on a 10.5" rear. Love them...not cheap at the price of most "common" 928's but really do update the car.

I have thought about wheels a lot, which ones I will upgrade my manhole covers to. I think the best size is 18" for a 928 and then it depends on body color. For my car it probably won't be any of these, I have some in mind for it, but these are some of the best;

Black car and hot wheel;


unique wheel and unique color



one of the best total packages

How about these babies....19" Is a couple 928's in the UK & Germany that are running these. Had difficult time locating as I knew design but only found Momo here in Italy with a set very close but not the size for a Porsche. Came close to a custom make until I ran into this company that advertised in the GT Porsche magazine. Will fit on my project 5-Speed eventually....
Veloce : Welcome


Manufactured by “Low Pressure Casting” its Strength and Integrity cannot be questioned with a weight index of 715 Kilos per wheel, strength combined with style, the perfect combination for Fast Road or Track use. Sizes available 8.5x19, 9.5x19 and 11x19 with Direct fitment applications to all Porsche fitted with ABS chassis, also available for SC, 3.3 and Turbo 1 with the use of Veloce High Performance Billet wheels spacers.

Hey 2quick - I think that is the wheel on the purple GTS I posted above.


Hey tech944 - did you ever think about the small low jacquemond wing from the black car I posted above painted in red for your car. I think that would be the icing on the cake since you dont have the little rubber spoiler. That paint job looks sweet in that right front fender shot.

Although quite similar the wheel on the purple GTS appears to be the Porsche Sport Classic Wheel not the Veloce wheel.

Here are the wheels on my GTS. RH 3.6 turbo reps with centers painted to match the exterior:

Here are some CCWs. They make custom wheels from one piece forgings, a great company. Notice the machine marks, ahh. I once dreamed of new BBSs but now feel three piece to be obsolete! (BBS does make one piece and they're great but $)
These are 18X10 front and 18X11 rear.

Thx, the paint job/body work is nothing short of amazing, high end job with a flawless final product, looks fantastic.

Anyway, I removed the "S" rear spoiler during the body work/paint job and fitted S4/GT rear window trim, etc to finish the delete. I will be adding the S4 wing in original black, gonna look sick on this car...

Tech944 - just my $.02 - the turned down lips on the jacquemond wing make all the difference from a picnic table to a wing. Plus GTS Aero mirriors and H4's and you would be driving the best looking red 928 in existence. Your in-law knows how to paint.

928forlife: those wheels in red are tailor made by Braid in Spain, and that rear wing is still Strosek (in red) . I agree, very cool

Awsome wheels!
Now I think my 7 & 8" 16" flat disks are inadequate. Well, one more future expense to add to the "wish list"
Thanks guys!
