Easiest way to remember it is this, narrow body is anything non-awd or not gts.
Wide body in terms of wheels is anything awd or gts
Widest body is anything with air scoops on the rear fenders directly back from the door panel. 911 Turbo, GT3RS come to mind

You know, I always read people talking about how great wider 911s are and they might include information about which specific models in a generation are widebody.
But they never really compare width across generations. Or at least I haven't seen people talking about that.
With how much wider 911s have gotten throughout the years/generations, wouldn't a non-widebody 991 be wider than a widebody 993?

@wkearney99 Pretty late to this thread, but I'm about to be the owner of a 2015 Carrera 4S (delivery takes far too long!) and am considering replacing the wheels - if you're looking to sell the wheels from your beautiful blue Targa I'd love to chat. Mine has the 20" Carrera Classic wheels (10-spokes) currently and I really prefer the Carrera S wheels (like yours!) Love to see if we can coordinate something. I don't think I can PM yet as I'm too new to the platform.
