speedlaw thars the one, looks like the same car except front grille seems to have changed and single wiper didn't realise they made adapters for 17's also looks

Yeah, those adapters are wheel-independent. Once you have 4x100 --> 5x130 you can fit any Porsche wheel you'd like.

Ruf wheels? That would be a first!

Would be very cool...

The only problem I can see is that the thickness of the adapters won't suit the wheels you want. But you can take that into account when you're wheel hunting...!

i'm not sure how wide they are they probably 8/17 or some other wide size 8.5/17 or even 18's now they would look ruf...

Only found 18's:

Bet there are other sizes out there too. Above is the typical Ruf wheel style.

finally they are on...the car looks really different and rides different to the 17inch momo's, (it needs to be lowered tho by at least another 10mm)i've already had people asking me how i got them on.. top speed has improved as well. Speedlaw the oe colour of the wheel rocks with the flash red...
