Anyone running this combo, if so can you post pics? I have a co-worker trying to debate between 18's and 19's right now

11's with the proper offset on a narrow body 996 should have NO clearance issues, even on car lowering with coilovers.

Dude, you have to at least put some side shirts on that car. Something to balance it out so it doesn't flip backwards with all that wing on the back.

My H&R springs have basically the same ride height as my friend's C2 who has Eibach springs. Here's a photo of my H&R's w/ 19's. No rubbing ever...

I have heard that PSS9's are comperable to the Eibach so here is a pic with the 19's. I have never had any trouble with bottoming out.
