SamboTT mentioned spacers to fill in the wheel wells better. Obviously I'm just a little lost. Think I will eventually lower car a bit, not sure that matters.
thx for the replies so far!
Less offset pushes the wheels out farther. Many 997tt owners use 7mm spacers on the front wheels and 15 mm on the rear for essential offsets of 49 and 36. various other offsets will also work. I have aftermarket wheels with offsets of 45 and 40 which work quite well.

These look good. 19" or 20"?

You could always go blue Closeup photo shows the OEM wheel with a 15mm spacer.

What offsets are you running? Do you have spacers?

I really like these. Makes the car look super sophisticated. Have to drive with one pinky up

HRE sure can make some awesome wheels. If only I wasn't a cheap ba5tard...
