Question on 305 rear tires on narrow body 997-2 C2


Recommended Posts

Hi,

Has anyone used 305 wide rear tires on the narrow body C2 cars without fitment or rubbing issues? I am looking to get a second set of wheels/tires, and find quite a variation in the aftermarket wheel specs.

If so, could you share what tires/wheel combination works? I am especially interested in the wheel width and offset(s) used. Also, please state if any wheel spacers were used.

Thanks

Sanjeev

I have 305/30/19 instead of the stock 295 on Sport Design wheels without any spacers etc. (on 2006 997-1 S), and no issues whatsoever, even when pushing the car...Subtle but welcome visual difference as tire is more flush with fender. Go for it.

Old thread... Anyone running 305/30-20 on a 997 C2? My 295/30-20 are done and 305 is much more available than 295 in my area.

 

I have OZ "superleggera" 20" wheels fore and aft. Not sure what the rim widths are. Is there a sensible way to measure the rims widths on the car?

 

FYI: MY05 997.1 C2. TechArt lowered 1". I have 295/30-20 rears and 245/30-20 fronts. All Goodyear F1 Eagle. I'd buy a set of Goodyear for the rear if they were available.
