19" wheel offset for aggressive look.

I'm looking to buy new wheels but trying to figure out a good aggressive setup for some 19's. Only thread I found was showing 19s but no offset.

The car is a 2002 996 Turbo and it is also RWD so I can go with different size tires if there is something that might look better than the standard 315/25/19.

I heard 19x12 +32 in the back is pretty aggressive but doable... I don't want it overly aggressive but just more than stock looking. Does anyone have pictures and size/offset of their wheels? or suggestions? Also need front sizes too.

I'm going to go to HRE to have it measured but was just curious what was already out there and being used.

Thanks in advance.

David

We've built many sets of 9.0X19 and 12.0X19, +45mm offset for a 996 widebody.

Are your fenders rolled? What suspension are you using? Track alignment, how much chamber do you run?

12 x 45 = factory GT2

Basically you can do anything from 32-45 and it will require rolling your fenders. You know all the parameters
