For all those that wondered... there are some 17" wheels that will clear the big 993 GT3 brakes (the MK2 or later 6 piston 14" setup).
Here's a photo of the wheel just put on...
Clears by almost 1/4" all around.

Well now with those brakes, the ABS, you need to get some sticky slicks on that car. Then those 996 Cups are going to have their work cut out for them!

Olli, that seems surprising on an 18" wheel. So long as the disk is 350mm you'd think they'd fit?

Wheel spokes even clear the calipers?
I have to use a 7mm spacer in the front to clear 996 tt calipers with the stock front 7" Cup 2, 9" will fit on front without spacers

I have to use the spacer to get the wheel to clear the strut.
