3790 + 140 (wheel locks) = 4k rounded up

and i did look..as you can see my best price was 3600 but that was with +27 +29 offsets or something

f1 is the only place that was willing to guarantee me +23 all around would work so i went with them

as i can tell, i should be the first g with vs-xx +23 in the fronts

Its all good, i wasnt trying to poke at you...just wondering where you got the wheels, but i read back at the beginning and saw that you bought it from F1.

Congrats and put up the wheels when you get them.

Beachcoupe, congratz on the cayman. That is one of the best handling car in the world. It will out handle the 911 period. Enjoy the car but wish it had a little more HP.

i agree with you completely! being that it's a mid engine and a hartop, it makes the car more rigid and it's balanced perfect!!! i agree with the horsepower too but you know, for around southern california it's perfect! thanks again. don't know if i should post pics here though. rough crowd

+20 is a nice offset.

I don't have works but i run 9.5 front and 10.5 rear with +17/+22 offset. They look WIDE... I had to roll my rear fender even though i only run 275
I havent rubbed on the front yet but I'm sure I will at some point.
