With that power, 19's make more sense. Plus, OZ look better IMO because of the staggered lip fitment.

Are the OZ 19" the same offsets that are on the Turbo?

I like the 20s... That Rt12 is so awesome - I think I'd rather have one of those than a Carrera GT.

i like the 20s as well but as a wheel guy first I am heavily biased

I am surprised to see Ruf did 20", but it just goes to show 20" is becoming more "mainstream". This will probably go a long way for 20" wheels to become accepted with the performance crowd

Not feeling the wheels... The OZ-rims looked way better imo. But hey, it's still a crazy Rt12!

I don't think so...the RT12 is a narrow body 911...unlike the previous generation of RTurbos, they elected to use the narrow body rather than the wide body...the offsets must be different.

But if you are looking for the wheels, Ruf does have them for 997 Turbo conversion...or you could go to tirerack.com
