GT3RS 19" Wheels
Hey,
I love running my forgeline 19" wheels on my GT3. They clear my PCCB brakes and I think the car looks much better on 19's plus I have the same rubber as RS 265/325. Have any of you guys with RS's swap the stock wheels for 19" HRE or Forgeline wheels?
By changing the wheel diameters away from 20/21 diameters does this freak of the brake system and traction control?
Just curious if any who track theirs a bunch tried this yet?

James,
Are you using 19" on your track package RS's? I saw the video of the read and black RS's does one of them it? Any major draw backs or issues with the car systems? Did you notice any major improvements from 19's.

My recollection was that TC had to be turned off on the GMG car. Also, it's been while so I'd have to see it again to confirm, I thought the rear wheel's offset was a smidge off. Perhaps a small spacer would've looked better or it could be that Forgeine was playing it safe with their measurements. Forgeine will do custom offsets I believe so it may be moot.
Love my 19"s on my GT3.

I didn't have any issues with the TC as the car has so much more grip, it was too much fun and a fantastic alternative to a Cup car!

Thanks for clarifying James.
If it doesn't interfere with TC and/or ABS I'll likely be going this route. Hopefully you guys will have one that I can check out while I'm there.
You guys will have my RS next week!

I'd be pretty pumped if in fact it were plug and play.

We did nothing to the car other than a complete alignment change which makes a big difference......

james, if you left TC and ESC on will the 19" freak out computer.
on 997.2RS, any tires will work when TC ECS turned off.
but if you turn them on, it's no go.
