I know they won't fit the 996, but all you will need are some wheel adapters. They are pretty cheap, should be under $600 each for 19s. But the rear is only 19 x 10.5, but I'm sure you can still fit 295 back there

I really like them, especially in silver

I have a 335i as a daily and i was thinking about buying these.

I love these wheels, esp the rears. See if you can get someone to photoshop some on your car 1st.

It would all really come down to fitment. If the wheels don't fit correctly then i would say no. Make sure whoever you buy them from will take them back if it doesn't work out. tirerack.com will take returns

Double check your tire sizes. 295 is not a correct fitment for the turbo. It can affect your diff.

I like them but I for sure wouldn't ghettorig'em on my car. I do not trust the wheel adapters and plenty of people have had vibration problems from spacers.

Indeed. However with hub centric billet adapters, there will be probably zero problems.

The OP mentioned 19" fitment. You have to make sure the rolling diameter is within the tolerance. I'm pretty sure 235/35-19 front and 315/25-19 rear is the correct fitment.

They look great, but they're pretty heavy.
