GT3 Wheels on GTS

Will the GT3 wheels fit on a CL-configured GTS? They are both 235/35-19 front and 305/30-19 rear, but not sure if offsets are compatible.

Unless the GT3 wheels are from an RS they will have the narrowbody offset - GT3 = narrowbody / GT3RS = widebody. Fronts are the same / rears are different.

Doesn't the 3RS have a different setup? 245/35F & 325/30R? I thought the 997.2 GT3 was also a WB.

The GTS is a wide body car, GT3 narrow body car....GT3RS and Turbo are wide body cars...so the offset on GT3 CL rear wheels will be wrong, fronts will be correct. You need GT3RS or Turb CL rear wheels for correct rear offset.

Yes GT3 wheels will fit but the offsets will be off and they will look tucked in at the rear. You need GT3 front wheels and RS rear wheels to be correct.

Also, tire sizes do not give a clear picture when it comes to wheel fitment.
