So after looking at different springs and wheels I made the decision and took my car to Jasmine Porschalink in Nelson, Lancashire.

I went for the new Fuch 18" wheels with Black centres with Pirelli Rosso Directional N0 tyres and spacers on the rear to fill the arches.

Also had fitted a set of Bilstein B6 dampers with H & R springs lowered 30mm and had the car 4 wheel aligned and corner weighted.

Anyone looking for tyres try www.tyreleader.co.uk as they supplied me with 2 x 225/40/18 and 2 x 265/35/18 Porsche Rated tyres (build date April this year) for £447.00 delivered :roll:

Hope you like the pictures :)

I know it's an old thread, but I just had to post to say that is a lovely looking 911 - very jealous!!

What colour is it, do my eyes deceive me? It looks like a very dark purple?

Very, very nice :)

Ha!! Yes, i did read that after I posted - silly me!!

It is lovely! Would love to see some more photos Martin.

A 964 was high on my list of wants, but sadly they are too far out of reach nowadays.

That looks really special, if it were mine I don't think I'd ever leave the garage other than to drive it! Simply stunning :)
