Check out our customer Christopher’s (@hatzenbach) beautiful 2009 Porsche 997.2 C4S (wide body) with SM-10 wheels. Our photographer tagged along with the car owner at one of his track days through Hooked On Driving at Sonoma Raceway. The beefy setup on this dual duty car looks amazing with wide 11″ rear wheels wrapped in 305 NT01’s. The SM-10 wheels feature an “I” beam spoke design and provides superior brake clearance for many aftermarket big brake kits and even PCCB’s that many other wheel manufacturers cannot.
