Will these wheels fit on a 997C2S?

Not without spacers.

Not without spacers.

Spacers would make the problem worse. This was already answered on the other forum. Spacers make the offset less, not more. Narrow body cars normally have 57mm front offset and 67mm rear offset. Some reduction is possible, but anything over 10mm reduction is pushing it, especially on the front wheels where steering geometry is affected by offset.

Yes,will need spacers...

We manufacture aftermarket wheels for Porsche and I can assure you that Ken in Irvine is correct. A narrow body 997 needs a higher offset in the rear than the 37 indicated below. A spacer reduces the effective offset of any wheel. Unfortunately those wheels just won't work on the car. The fronts will work just fine, but rears will be a problem.
