THANKS ALL

So here's my situation. Just bought these for my 996 turbo with the belief they would fit. Ouch, they don't. Oh so close, just a bit too wide on the tires with stock suspension. So I have 4 very expensive paperweights. I'm now told these are 997.1 and GT3 fitment with iron rotors. Possibly others, but as you can tell, I'm no fitment expert
Specs below, have more photos of them mounted if needed. These still have the little rubber hairs on the edges. Tires are VERY good condtion.
With the exception of one nick on one rim, they are super clean. Let me know! Help me out!
Thanks!!

I think the rule for selling here is you have to post real pics of what you are selling. Too bad they are not 19"s.

 

Have you looked into spacers?

 

wanna sell tires separately?

 

Although not my first choice, yes I would.

 

Yes, I spent the day in the race prep shop trying all sorts of alternatives, and scratching our heads to make this work.
My stock suspension is the main culprit. With coilovers, this would be a done deal. Rears rub on inner fender bottoms, and with spacers, would rub on outer fender at full depression.
On fronts, the 245s are too wide, and hit my spring perch.
So, while I would love a set of coilovers, I dont want to add ~$4000 to solve a $1500 mistake!
235s would solve the front, but the 12" wheels in rear- I cant find a tire that is narrow enough AND will fit without stretching.
So I'll bite the bullet, put it to lessons learned, and sell them to the right car! Thanks for asking~

 

I am very interested!
But are you willing to separate the tires?
I am only interested in the wheels.

 

There appears to be interest for breaking these up, so yes, I can unmount them and sell as wheels only and tires only. Pm me or email direct with offer. Thanks
