When I get my 19's is the correct tire size...
235/35/19 and 315/25/19 for the PS2's? Is there any rubbing issues? My car is dropped on Ruf PSS9's. I do not know what setting it is on but it is not overly stiff and I have like a 1-1 1/2 finger gap between tires and fender.
I have decided on the Iforged Aero's. I personally like the clean 5 star with rivets, a black center and polished lip...........

If they are "custom".....then they can be any offset you want.
Offset determines where wheel & tire sit (in-out) relative to wheel arch or fender line so it's the main (of 3 things) that affects clearence('rubbing issues')....the other 2 things being ride height, and finally wheel/tire size.
People who are real picky about looks (and where that outside edge of the wheel & tire sit relative to the car body) are 1st deciding on offset......(that's after they decide what tire they want the rim to eventually hold)
.
Getting all this bass-ackwards can, sometimes, produce less than optimum results.

I bought my car with the suspension already on there and I have not measured the ride height. Iforged has done rims for quite a few dropped 996TT's, I would imagine they will know what to do. I estimated the drop to be 1-1.5" whe I placed the order.
Do you have a rough idea of what parameters will cause rubbing or do I have enough clearance to run this size rim and tire without to much issue? There are quite a few people on here that run this size tire and they are dropped/modded so I would imagine there is some room to pplay with. Thank you for the info, I appreciate it........
