what year?
I've seen specs for a 2000 with 18" as follows:
Front - 50 - 52 mm
Rear - 63 - 65 mm
I don't think you will find 'official' specs for 19s on a 996... only on a 997.

I'm trying to find if I can run 40mm on fronts on a 2001 C4. Anyone know?

pm Damon at the TireRack (board sponsor with a banner on the right) he will know exactly what offset you need to put 19" on a 996nb...also you need to know the offset for the front because it will be different than stock...don't put 19's on the rear and leave 18' on the front (will screw up the abs system)...

A 19x11 on the 996 looks very nice at +60mm offset. Aggressive, but safe.
The 19x8.5 fronts look good at +44mm. That's what we build in the AMT Forged Alloys line for the 996 Narrow Body.
Good luck with the mods.

I ended up goin with a 10.5! Couldnt find an 11 in my price range! But i still got a 4 inch lip and was able to fit a 295 30 19! And my car is lowered so i did have to roll my fenders! But the final produced is perfect! My next step is body! Have any recommendations??? Or even anything on i can take off your hands??
