I once went for a drive through the Napa wineries in a 1979 911SC and I will second that! The roads weren't Tail of the Dragon good by any means, but they were perfectly paved (for tourism) and driving past the rolling vineyards in a vintage 911, windows down, sunroof open, made a very lasting impression!blueline wrote: Fri May 30, 2025 4:04 pm Wineries are always a good choice (excuse) for a nice drive in such a fine sports car!!

That's being machined, not forged. Forging process (if there was one) would have been before it was machined.rjbasch wrote: Tue Apr 15, 2025 1:35 pm Hey ReidMcT, some info for you regarding the items you requested:
-Wheel debris protectors: "TLG Guards" from Kies Motorsports: https://www.kiesmotorsports.com/product ... be30&_ss=r
-Custom designed 20" 2-piece wheels: I completed the purchase from a company called "Tianjin Dunhui Trade Co, Ltd" (https://dunhuicn.en.alibaba.com/) in China via the Alibaba.com "messages" interface. My sales rep's name was "Suen LiAng" and his responses to my messages were always in English (although they were sometimes a bit odd because I believe he was using a Chinese-to-English translation tool). Although the wheels I selected were custom-made to my specifications, they have LOTS of wheels to choose from, and they can customize anything based on the size and offset you're looking for. I selected the 20" x 8.5" front with +47ET and 20" x 11" rear with +45ET for my 718 Boxster S. You may want to go with 10.5" in the rear if you're looking for more of a stock fitment. The total cost was much less than 1/2 of what I was quoted in the US (I paid just under $2K), and the shipping wasn't too bad at about $250. The entire process took about 2 months from design to receipt, so you'll have to be patient if you want this to work. Of course, this was all pre-tariffs so I'm not sure what the cost would be now.

Hope this helps!
