i have 305/30/19 on the rear 01 996 C4 NB - works great, and looks great. I have a question though: whats the widest you can run on the front? I would like to get something wider than the standard 235/35/19.

Do you track or run your car hard all? No psm issues? I thought 305/30/19 was too different from the oem setup...
