You're off to a great start with these offsets - those are the ideal widebody offsets we run on most of our wheel sets depending on desired aggressiveness.

What did you have in mind in regards to wheel selection? Cast or forged?

Let us know and we can tailor the right set to your needs

I have a 997 c4s with 46 front offset and 37offset rear. Running 19x8.5 and 19 x 11.5. They sit perfect flush.

Not trying to take any business away from the site sponsors but, Ive seen some pretty good deals on used sets of forged wheels in widebody fitment. Both here in the classifieds and on ebay.

There is a set of HRE P40's for 3500 on ebay.

I guess it just depends on the budget.
