Upgraded aero and brakes for 996tt

Wow thats TUV related stuff for German market? If so, you guys rock in security and compliance regulation, we have nothing to worry over here, still I would feel safer in Germany

I'm using 991 GT3 calipers and 380mm discs F&R. Brembo floating discs with German made hats. 996 GT3 MC, I'm quite happy with them, finally the front to rear balance is something I like and with 265/325 tires the stopping power is adequate.

No, at least these in mine. Some shallower race calipers do fit inside some 18" wheels.

Can you fit 265/35/19 and 325/30/19 ?
I would like to order from Diego a new set of rims, considering 19" if possible this time for street or Rcompound tires and use 18" for slicks only. As there arent 18" Rcompound tires wider than 295 (besides Hoosiers) I am looking to 19" options
My car being much wider I suspect will have less clearance for the fronts to fit

265/30-19 has the same OD than 265/35-18, so the front clears everything as before. At rear 325/30-19 has much bigger OD than 295/30-18, so issues come from that, not really from the width. There's plenty of room inside the wheel well, just be sure that outside clears the fender arch. Mine grinded room for themselves @ the dip before Schwedenkreutz, bottom of Fuchsröhre and the dip after Tiergarten...much more vertical G there than at other tracks. Fender arches themselves are OK, but rear bumper has now new design.
Another issue would be ABS, but I have custom made front tension bolt rings like John's, so tire size difference is neutralized.

I thought you run 265/35-19 instead of 265/30-19 !!! Now that makes sense, I am able to fit 245/35-19 in the front and still have some small clearance, I guess can do 255/35-19 but not more than that.
Would you think 305/30-19 would still provide sufficient grip, as seems to give less pain to ABS or fitting in.
I can easily run the 325/660-18 Pirelli's with a lot of room so guess even the 325s wont be a problem at all for me, but those custom front tesnion bolt rings are above my understanding to be honest.
So I can try 255/35-19 paired with 305/30-19 and shouldnt worry for ABS, just only to address the rear grip if enough, but imo no need to worry about it
