    I have two sets of wheels for 2000 911 C2. I've become a fan of my winter wheels and I'm considering putting summer tires on them and making my other wheels the new winters. Not exactly brain surgery, but I'm home with a sick kid and would love other opinions! Thanks!

    Hopefully, the poll works

    Both look good, but the ones on now look better.

    Not of those two; some Turbo Twists always look good. :)

    I'm a sucker for mesh wheels so those get my vote. Either way you can't lose they both look good.

    Summer wheels, actually those are really ugly. You should give them to me for my Boxster. :D

    Summer wheels (I assume they are the top picture) get my vote. I do love them, although they are they painful to clean.

    that's the deal breaker for me, I bet it takes an hour per wheel to get all the brake dust off 'em.

    go with the turbo twists :)

    +1 on the winters.... Easy-to-clean factor is important for me, and the turbo-twists are a fave too. Not that I don't like the mesh, but I've been there done that and don't think I'll do them again...



    (yeah, right, and after my first black car I swore I'd never own another - I'm on #7 now)

    Looks like a few of you see what I do. The mesh looks great, but holy PITA to clean! I can reach my entire hand in to clean the winters.

    go with the summer rims.
    get a good spray cleaner (griot's garage) and a wheel brush.
    it will take only 5 min to clean each rim.
