where can i find 12" wide OZ ultraleggera wheels?

tire rack only has them in 19x11 or 20x11 for the rear on 997 applications but i have located pics of a 997 GT3 with 19x12 OZ unltraleggera wheels and want to know where to purchase them.

the 12" wide rear wheel has a more concave face that looks awesome

yeah, just because you don't see them on the website doesn't mean that Damon can't have some made up for you with a different section to achieve that width...you had better make sure you understand what offset and tire size you will need to make that wheel fit...

im pretty well versed in 997 fitments. upon further digging, i found that the 19x12 only comes up if you enter a 997 GT3 RS for the vehicle.

unfortunately that wheel has a 51mm offset and will hang way outside of an NB. for comparison, the GT3 19x12 factory wheel has a 68mm offset and with the 5mm factory spacer that some GT3's came with give a 63mm offset which is about as far out as i would go.

if Damon doesnt reply to this thread, i will contact him.

i have a feeling the 12" wide NB fitment is a europe only piece atm
