Could someone please buy these already before I end up offending TKO with my lowball offer?

Rear Wheel 11x19 ET56

Narrow body fitment to HRE specs. Don't know the weights.

I do realize that your wheels were for the narrow body but interestingly enough that the stock Turbo wheels offset is 56mm front and 51mm rear, where yours are 51 front and 56 rear. I was hoping for similar offset to my stock wheels!!
Thanks anyway

If you want to keep your car completely stock I can understand, however if you call up HRE and tell them you have a narrow body 997, this is the exact wheel width/offset and tire size that they recommend. That is what I did and hence that is what I bought. They fit the car perfectly. They do push the wheel/tire face outboard a bit compared to stock, but thats why they look so good. They do not hang out too much but just enough to look 'right'. I am positive the Porsche designers would have wanted it this way but due to conservative country regulations, they are required to 'bury' the wheel and tire.

All the best,

Here is a photo of the Wheel/Tire set on my Carrera S. You can see how they fit.

Please note at the time of the photo the wheels were Satin Silver. I wasn't happy with the look so I sent them back to HRE and they refinished them in Clear Brush.

Thanks for your quick response. I have the Turbo (widebody) and did check http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Wheel...ulator#Results to see if your offset would work but determined that I would have problem with the rear.

FYI: My 4s came from the factory with narrow body wheels sport wheels with 15mm spacers. Dealer said sometimes this happens when the supply is low on certain rims.
