I have 19X11 rear track wheels, and found a set of Pirelli Trofeo R, but the rear is 325/30/19. Does anyone know it will fit on the wheel, and have no rubbing on the 991 C2S? Thanks.

offsets? a 325 will fit.. but obviously depending on where it sits under the fender.

It's 19X11 (5-130 ET65), and I have a factory 5mm spacer

Thanks, I got your answer in the PM. I will update once I mount these tires on the car.

the only downside might be the 11" wide kinda makes the 325 "poke" i honestly didnt think about that prior to answer, just thought about the offset and fitting under the fender... what widths are the tire reccomended for... i ran 325 but it was on a 12"

They'll fit but are a little wide for 11's. The sidewalls might tend to have a little more flex in hard cornering.

I would not recommend it for several reasons. With any R compound track tire, they run best with the widest wheel they are designed to fit. This allows you to run the lowest tire pressure possible to have the most contact patch (grip) with the best turn-in. Over-tiring kills turn-in and response if you use the same low starting tire pressures. The only way to try to get turn-in and handling back is to increase tire pressure to increase tire stiffness. The downside is this decreases contact patch, which means less grip. Finally, a larger tire is a heavier tire so you are adding more weight to the absolutely worst place on the car with no overall benefit in return.

On top of this, Trofeos are very sensitive to camber. With less than 2.5 degrees negative with a properly sized rim, several have worn the edges off a new set of Trofeos in a single weekend without adequate camber. Over-tiring them I suspect this would be even more of problem.

Finally, I am not sure why you are looking at this size when they make Trofeo Rs in 305/30-19 and 295/30-19, which are more optimal for your wheel size.

Thanks for the advice, 10 GT3. I'm buying this off someone who has bought a brand new set and have to sell before he had a chance to mount them. Looks like 325 might be too wide for my car.
