Yeah just looks a little out of place. Maybe it's just cause us Z owners are used to the looks and curves of a Z? I'm sure the Porsche forums will love them.

A question for you guys: I know that most on this site aren't fans of 20" wheels on the Z33 and that is fine, I know it's gone on for several years that I know of. My question is that here in Utah there are some very cool big mountain canyon roads that are even Interstate roads. The town that I moved to So. Utah from was in the mountains and to get there you have to go I-84 through a very curvy but fast, steep canyon and I usually would hit it up the canyon at some good speed; there are at least 8 places where the road crosses a big river 100 ft. below, so there are those "joints" that we all know about that can bang your suspension; some are pretty bad. I was a bit worried that with the 20" wheels they might "slap around" on those joints and other bumps, etc., but my car in the curves while at speed keeps the tires planted like a SOB even with the 20"'ers on! I've been told that it is because of my Bilsteins; they are very nice coils, do you think that my coils are saving me from a rough ride? The fact is that I haven't noticed a thing different in my ride/feel from my 18" stock V2 touring wheels (nice wheels themselves) and my 20" wheels. Sorry for the long post, but just curious what you may think the stock struts/springs would be like with my 20" wheels compared to the Bilsteins? They have cool damper dials 1-10 scale; #1 is supposed to be like stock Z; I have #6 in front, #2 rears. Thanks for putting up with me haha, but I am interested with the feedback, try to be nice now. Randy

Car photog composition error: lighting up the inside of the wheel wells. Makes the car look raised while it also draws attention to the tires and fender liner. It works great for raised trucks showing off big *** tires and suspension components etc. On a sports car, this only separates the vehicle from the wheels further, giving the impression that the wheels do not belong.

Couldn't have said it better. Lighting is crucial in this situation, and it doesnt help that his tires are covered in white rock debris
