Hello everyone! Does any one know if a set of 19 inch OEM lobster claw wheels from a 997 will fit a 1999 narrow body Carrera? The width of the wheels is 9 inches front 11 inches back. Thanks

Probably not. The offsets are different and you may have a rubbing issue on the rears. Do you have the offsets?

Will a 18 x 8.5 wheel fit in the front of a 996 that has been lowered 1 inch without protruding form the wheel well? Saw some cheap wheels with this meassurement. I would use the recommended tire size in the manual. The offset can be speciofied at time of order.

Do you think it will fit if I keep the offset at 50 mm (what the manual recommends for the 18x7)? Thanks for all the help...you guys have been very helpful! This is my second Porsche but the first one in which I am really involved.
