Noob Question

Hello to everyone...


Just registered to this forum.....glad to be here!

A bit about my ride:

just bought a stock 96 TT Black on Black....at the Porsche centre being tuned up right now and a fresh new paint job.

Fed Ex is delivering my...
JRZ RS coilovers
H&R sway bars
Tubi Exhaust (rear cans only)

Got 2 questions...
i'm planning to run 19 x 8.5, 19 x 11 wheels......whats the correct offset to achieve the deepest dish possible front and rear without having to do fender work?

Where is the best place to order the Techart front bumper? (cheese grader)

your comments are greatly appreciated!! Thanks!

Chris

You need to contact a wheel manufacture which can help you with the backspacing and offset. Fikse, kenisis, hre, etc.

Life Dies..

Thanks for the advice!

I've seen some forum members running 19's with very nice wheel setups. Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks again!

Don't run 19's with that car. IMO 18's are perfect on that car.

Aloha
