Indeed. How to do it on an 'S' though?

Good for you - changing out the wheels!

damn bro that is pretty aggressive! does it rub up front? The 997 has 7mm more positive offset vs the 996, which probably explains why the front wheel sticks out a bit.

don't tell me thats ur new ride

Wheels

The wheels look a bit crap in design, but their offsets are quite nice. The rear offset could be out a bit more to fill the arch.

I think the wheels need taller tyres to close the gaps.

taller tire will not close the gap. sure needs new suspension.

the rear offset is perfect. the front need to max out the camber. no rubbing at all. cool 997 comes with factory rolled fenders. actually the car handles even better!

looks great.
Even with the front sticking out a bit, which you really can't tell unless you are a perfectionist.
Clean design and really good looking wheel.

The rear screams for drop, bigger tire would mean recalibration of the speedometer. What's the solution? wait for something that supports the PASM?

tHANKS!
