Fronts for me too,

Far more sophisticated lines that suit the coupe really well!

17-9 looks like the fronts have it
I think the porka wheels are similar to the std wheels but just fill the arches better, the rears would look better on a red coupe in my opinion for some reason.
The guy who ownes the green coupe is considering having the porka wheels refurbed in black im not sure on black could look mean but like um like they are!

Fronts but I would say that being a 911 fan! The rears look aftermarket cheap IMHO. Will the p wheels fit without spacers? I presume they are 18 x 8? Genuine would probably be 10 inch width rears?

These wheels if genuine also come in solid and hollow. If you are lucky enough to get the hollow you will benefit from the lighter weight too.

i think the front porsche wheels are 8" and the rears are 10" so would make sense the put front wheels on all round.
you can get hubcentric adaptors that clear the brembos and alter the hub diameter and pcd the porsche five stud too

they are not 10 inch wide for sure, they are replicas but still think there worth a fair bit.

Not the genuine Porsche ones there copies, imported though from germany.
Azevs were also imported from Germany and are very expensive not cheap wheels of course they are aftermarket wheels but I dont think they look chavvy like off the shelf alloys nearly always do.
There arn't many that suit the coupe without spoiling the lines in my opinion these are two of my favourate.
A set of std wheels some how stretched to 17s or 18s would be perfect.
