So from everything I've read so far seems like the rear wheels offsets of a turbo/ or wide body 996 will stick out too much on a narrow body.


I've been trying to search but can't come up with a picture. Does anyone have one?


Its all matter of taste for most but will half an inch be that much of an eyesore?

 

You can fit widebody rims on a narrow body cab. I did it with 19's. Warning, its quite a journey, and you will need to do modifications.

The end result to me was worth it....

Here is my journey

i have wheels that were made for a turbo on mine, its lowered and fenders are cut and rolled and it still rubs on dips or bumps in the road...... "strat10" u say quite the journey .... but u did no mods to make them fit.... ur car looks pretty stock even the suspension is stock , so what did u change ?

 

Will not look right and you risk damaging your quarter panels. Don't waste your time with this. Get proper wheels.

 

Thanks guys for your input.


fly996 do you happen to know if coilovers from a turbo will fit a nb?

 

Turbo offsets are 45mm running 11" wheels, you need to runn gt3 offsets with 63mm offsets with 11" wheels.

 

Not exactly sure but I think the answer is no....

 

996 turbo coils will fit a c4s since it has wide body suspension, but they will not fit a normal c2 narrow body.

This is as far as I know since I just ordered turbo coils for my c4s

 

I just put BBS LM's 8:5" front and 11" rear on my 2003 narrow body with 56 offset. No problem with standard suspension height. Really planted the car and reduced body roll. On the advice of tyre rack I increased rear tire width by 10mm. You can see a shot of the rear wheel tire in my garage. Hope this helps.
