The pics are very hard to tell from though, im sorry thats all i have. i will host some more when i get back to the shop tommorow. I think i measure the car is 7'' wider total from back in the day when i first started the project. the rear holds 20x13'' and the front holds 20x11.5'' without any issues. The rear has mich ps2 335X25x20. to give an idea on how wide it really is
If I may; I have been searching for ways to flair my rear quarters to give the car back the lines Porsche designed out of it post 993. A 911 needs a big bulbous ***. I like how you have molded the RSR flairs, however, I'm not liking the way they go over the bumper cover. I think the rear would benefit from modifying the bumper cover to meet the flair and give it a nice round sexy curve like a 911 should. Just a wider version of the C4S - something like Wicked Racing's 7 inch wide body conversion, only rounder. I think if your bumper cover was pushed out at the corners you'd have it.

Something like this:



This rear is 7" wider than a stock turbo. Same final dimension as yours. That big RSR wing would look sick on this car.
