Negative effects of a narrower rear wheel?


Recommended Posts

I am looking for some technical advice about wheel size. I have an 2006 C2S Cab and I am looking to put some 20 inch aftermarket wheels on it. I found some affordable wheels I really dig but the widest they come in are 10.5 inches (not in 11 inches like the factory rims). I actually prefer the look of the tire on the narrower rim than I do on the 11 inch. FWIW - Below are pics of my car and of the wheels I like.

Is there any techinical reasons why I should not go with a slightly narrower rim if the offset and all othe aspects of the wheel are correct for my car?

Thanks in advance. B)

I've seen those 20's around, who makes them and where do you get them?

They are a Vossen 094s. Wheel Dynamics sells them. They sell a bunch of other cheap (and fugly) wheels for porsche but it seems that most of what they sell is designed for 996s an not so much for 997s.
