[s-cars] Replica Wheels any BTDT

[Jason Butler]

I have these wheels and I think there is plenty of room in there for 
a big brake kit.  There is 7/8" from the carrier bracket to the 
inside edge of the spokes on the G60's. So if the 993 are more than 
7/8" wider on the outside of the rotor there may be a problem.   The 
wheels themselves are decent a bit heavy but they look pretty good
