Default 997 Wheels - Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 Tires
I own a 2007 Carrera S Cab, 19" standard Carrera Wheels (so-called "Lobter claws"). Tire sizes on these wheels are 235/35-19 front and 295/30-19 rear. The Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 does not come in a 295/30-19 size, but is available in a 305/30-19. Anyone know if mounting the wider (305/30) tire on the wheel could cause problems?

Any help/suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Is the car lowered and what is the offset of the rear wheel you have on the car?

You will be absolutely fine. Those tires are great and not cheap.

The 305's will be fine mounted on the rear. Please call me if I can help.
