996 turbo winter wheel question
Can someone correct me if i am wrong on this.
I believe that i should be running 18X10's on the rear wrapped in 265/35/18 snow tires for the winter.
For the front's the stock 18x8 wheels should be fine. again correct me if am wrong.
If i've got it right, what cars came with an 18X10 turbo twist wheel? Are there any 18X10 that come with the correct offset for the 996 turbo? Or do i have to find a replica out there somewhere. I would like to find some used one's or pick up some replica's that will work as long as they aren't made in China.
Any help much appreciated
thanks
chris
