911A4Mustang is infamous around these parts
New Here!

Hi everyone, I am new to the forum. I have owned my 996 for 1.5 years now and this car has exceeded my expectations. I am an enthusiast through and through and my collection also includes a supercharged 35th Anniversary Mustang GT (358rwhp) and my daily driver is a 2007 Audi A4 S-line. Here`s a photo of my 2003 C2 Cabriolet with Aero package.



I would love to get some 19 inch rims on the 911, looking for a 5 spoke design with a dish. I am open to suggestions from members here.

That is exactly what I was thinking of!!! Please tell me there's a way to fit these on a NB. What make of rims are these, dimensions...?

I love that they preserve the original Porsche look while providing a little (read a lot of) flair!

I run MHT wheels

19 inch Mantra's chrome with a deep dish looks great, but the ones pictured above are more what I think I am going to change to in the future. I think polished wheels with the oem look is nicer. Good luck

For the price you're offering yours at I was hoping they'd fit on mine! The attached chart shows the fitment for C2 NB cars. I see that the fronts are fine but the offset is a little different with the WB. Is this something that could be remedied with a spacer? i.e my fitment shows a required offset of 52mm and on the WB the offset required is only 39mm? Or do I have this backwards? Anybody with experience please chime in.

FrontSizeOffsetFinishBolt PatternList
19 x 8.5 45 Silver w. Polished lip 5 x 130.00
RearSizeOffsetFinishBolt PatternList
19 x 11.0 52 Silver w. Polished lip 5 x 130.00
19 x 11.0 64 Silver w. Polished lip 5 x 130.00
