2013 991 Carrera S HRE P40SC Wheels, Brembo Brakes & TechArt Aero

This agate grey SharkWerks project 991S graced the cover of Total 911 Magazine Issue 97, titled "991 Perfection" but that was round one. For a second helping an even lighter-weight set of HRE P40SC wheels and larger 380mm Brembo Brake kit was on the menu:



Just a quick test fit of the satin black HRE P40SC's...


Factory 4-piston rears:
