They're 997 gt3 specs per CCW. Really show off the larger floating rotors too.

Front- 18x9 offset 50mm
Rear- 18x12 offset 68mm

The tires are Pilot Sport Cup 2's for stock turbo twist wheels. They're a bit narrow for the 12" wheels but they were given with the car so i figure i use them and work with them for now. Wider tires to come..

Thank you ! I was going to powdercoat them originally but the brushed silver finish is growing on me.

Yeah, the brushed finish gives a great contrast. I wouldn't change it thanks for the specs. Good stuff

I've got the same C14's in a shot peened satin black on my seal grey but the silver looks great on the black, love the contrast!

These are HRE's. I had them custom made. Can't remember the model. I think they are 9 1/2 and 11 inch. Front tires just barely fit, but no rubbing despite looking like they have less than a mm clearance: Front 245-35-19, rear 295-30-19. I had to get the diameters as close as possible as its a all wheel drive. The rear tires are just a bit narrow for the rims, but they ride great. No sidewall give at all. They are Hankooks. They made it just under 200mph before.

Nice, thanks...they're very nice. Love the look.

I'm running the same tire sizes on my 19's. .2" taller in the rear on an AWD. Not ideal but pretty close. My 295's fit perfect on my 11'" rears...and I thought that was the ideal/recommended tire width for 11's.

Anyhow, I'm running the new Kumho Ecsta PS91 "supercar" tires. They seem pretty sticky.

Can't say I like the ride quality depreciation on the 19's (vs my 18's though). They do however look better!
