Hi.

You list the GT3 RS.
Do you have the 18" centerlock for the 997.2 GT3 with standard brakes(2010)(non-RS, non-PCCB)?

Thanks.

Yellow PCCB and Red GT3 calipers/rotors are the same size....these wheels should kit PCCB cars too.

The Challenge wheels clear all 380mm rotors and calipers just fine.

All the center lock equipped GT3,GT2,GT3RS, GT2RS use the same dimensions for front and rear brakes, and the same calipers. Front rotors at 380mm diameter with 6-piston Brembo calipers, and rear at 350mm diameter with 4-piston calipers.

If these wheels will clear the brakes on the 2010-2011 997.2 GT3 with steel brakes , they will work on the PCCB as well.

The first generation 997 GT3, came with different dimensions for steel brakes and PCCB, but these cars don't even use Center Locks, they use 5 lugs. The original confusion was the pre-centerlock brakes.

If your car has centerlocks, the wheels fit the car fine.

Sorry for the confusion.
