What would you recommend as the correct tire size for the Turbo with center-locks, to go along with 9.5x20, 12x20 wheels you’re recommending?

“991 Turbo Centerlock Optional fitment we have been using
FI142 20X9.5 CL ET50
FI134 20X12 CL ET44”

Thanks!

Thank you! Any photos of the 305/30/20 mounted on a 12x20 wheel. One of my concerns is the amount of rim sticking out, and unprotected from curb rash. Also, of course, performance. Again, thanks!

Beautiful GT3s! And the tires don’t look stretched out, you’re right. How do the rear wheel wells of the GT3 991 compair with those on a Turbo 911? Both cars have rear-axle steering. Are there differences between them that gives less or more room to one, or the other? Offsets and rubbing are my next concerns to address. ET47 is the correct offset for the Turbo with 12x20s, as I understand it. True? Thanks again!

The 12 et44 definitely do sit out more on the Turbo than you see on the GT3's.

The 11.5 et56 would sit inbound 18mm more than the 12 et44 you see in the pics on the turbo which is quite a bit

So, a 12x20 ET47, with 305/30/20s will rub, or otherwise be a problem, within a Turbo’s wheel well, in your experience? Do those that are mounted on the Turbo Cabriolet in the previous photos have a different offset? If so, what are they running? Thanks!

12 et44 is what you see on the cab and does not rub even when lowered w the 305 30 20
