Bought new shoes for my 996TT!

After 4 days of pondering I finally made a choice on what to replace my Techarts with. I had the chrome Techarts riding on 18" Yoko's (225 front & 295 rear)and now I've got 19" Michelin PS2's (235 front & 315 rear) coming along with Polished HRE543R's (4" LIP!!). Was considering the 843Rs, Cargraphics Racing 19", and the Sportec. Such a dilemma! 3 weeks until I get my wheels!

Current: (for some reason the pic wont post so click link - admin help?)

After: (identical car to mine!)



Here's a better angle shot on a mercedes (though my lip will be 4" so much deeper then this one):

Nice! Looks kinda like what I am getting for the Viper. But I am getting the black/gun metal (whatever they call it) centers.

Very nice. I always liked a properly setup 996.

Yeah, Chad's red 997TT was really nice. He said it was boring so now it's gone. It's safe to say that he is my hero. That is all.

Jeremy Clarkson says its boring too. I think Chad has gone down the list of cool cars to the point that he is running out of new stuff to try. He should just get the Veyron and quit messing around.

Have you been driving the Viper lately? Must be a tough choice between the TT Porsche or the TT Viper every morning.

After seeing the white one at Starbucks, I can see why they are very desirable cars. The white with the carbon accents and the power to go with it make a very nice looking/performing car although very expensive.

Ive been driving the Viper 50% of the time and the Saleen the other 50% - its tough when you only get 5-6 miles to the gallon in the snake on 100 oct that runs $5/gallon - LOL! The Porsche is still my fave daily driver but it's got a ripped tire (unrepairable) so until my wheels get here it's garaged (I am not driving that car around on its doughnut - looks gay!).
