Hello Everyone. New to this Site. I just purchased a 2008 porsche 911 4. The car is lowerind with h&r lowering springs with the stick 18 wheels. Im looking to put on the 2012 porsche turbo wheels in 19". Since it is a awd. I was wondering would i need to put any spacers on? will it rub? Do i need to roll the fenders. Any suggestions would help. Thanks guys

 

Hey there, welcome to the group. I'm your neighbor up here in SFV. Here is a pic of my 997.2 C2 with the same 1.2" drop you have but with 19" wheels. No rubbing, no fender pull, no spacers required. The C4 is wider than a C2, but I'm not sure if it requires spacers. I'm sure someone else will pipe in.

What I can say about ride height (if you have immediately noticed already), you will discover that railroad tracks, driveways, and other steep inclines will need to be taken with more caution.

Enjoy your new ride. Pictures?

 

since your car is a wb like a 997.2 turbo, you can fit 997.2 turbo wheels with no rubbing. i have 997.1 wb turbo wheels on my nb and i have no issues with rubbing.

 

Stupid question - but what constitutes a wb? is my 997.2 C2 a wb? The 997.2 turbo with 11" rears has the same wheel width as mine. Only diff would be the 305 vs 295, on the turbo, right?

 

Hello there. The c4 is the awd so the read is wider than the original c2.

 

Here is one picture.

 

your car is a nb. wb cars are any awd, turbo, gt2, or gt3rs. c2, c2s, and gt3's are nb.

 

Thanks! My gal has a huge ***, I just automatically thought that made her a wb.

 

Didn't know GT3 RS was a WB. Learned something new, thanks for the list.

 

I did not know a GT3RS was wide body either. This is great forum for information!

 

all gts' are also widebody. even rwd variants.
