997.2 Wheels/Tires?
If I purchase a 997.2 with 18 inches wheels/tires and i wanted to replace with 19inch is there anything unique or special that needs to do be done prior to installation? or can I just put them on?

Thanks

If it is a 997.2 without PASM I would keep the 18s. If you have PASM pick lightweight 19" rims (OEM rims are some of the lightest). Check with your dealer regarding any ECU settings.

They'll fit the car w/o any mods or other requirements.

Just make sure the rolling diameter on the 19s is similar to the 18s !
