I recently installed new Hankook Ventus 18" tires and 996.2 upgraded two-part rims-those can be included in the purchase for additional $1000. Original rims are 17". I have records for the parts which I installed and purchased. I did all myself (see pictures) therefore only records for the parts are available: All 4 Rotors; All 4 break pads; Performance oil by Red Line and new Oil filter; Air filter; Ignition Coils and spark plugs; Flashed and replaced Coolant.
