My CCW’s are up for sale ($2200 including S03’s if you guys know anyone interested). So I’m trying to figure out what I want to goto next, I’m leaning towards just another set of CCW Classics (I’m buying new ones because I’m going to 18’s and my suspension offset is completely different and I need to clear bigger brakes ;)), but I’m also considering a couple other choices:

CCW Classics:

the supercups are the most period correct selection. besides, OEM porsche wheels are timeless.

Yeah, but my car is pretty far from “period correct” anyway. Right now I’m leaning towards SP20’s with powder coated centers.

Sscale wise, in the picture posted, those lighteweights look like 19’s. The will not look the same. I like the SP20’s too but I would not coat the centers unless you went with a VERY subtle gunmetal.

Whan the centers are black it really makes no differece what the centers look like. Black makes it all look the same. Black centers will make those CCW’s look the same as $300 hooptie wheels.

Valid point about black centers, looking at it in pshop it does appear that way. And when I had black centered BBS’ I did get that comment from time to time.

Turbo Twists accomplish nothing I want, they arent wide enough (Save for the GT2 ones), they are heavy, they have absolutely no dish, and everyone buys them.

295’s that’s part of the reasoning of going to 18’s rather than just getting a new set of 17’s with a different offset. You cant get shit for tires when you want 295 17’s.
