Bigger brakes might not clear. Anyone know for sure?

I've seen plenty stock 19" stock wheels for winter duty on pics of C2S on Autogespot.be website. Feel free to browse:

19" will work on a C2S, that is a factory winter option.

I know for a fact the 18s do not work. Had some as winter wheels for my 997.2, not enough room in the barrel for the brakes. Had 18s cuz the winter rubber for 19s was ridiculously expensive, plus I figured it would offer ,ore cushion if I slid into a curb. Hopefully the pricing has improved. Can you imagine what 20 inch winter rubber will cost?!?!

Exactly. I purchased a set of take off OEM 19" wheels with tires with intent to put winter tires on, in case I feel like taking my C2S for a spin on a clear winter day. If anyone is interested in a set of practically new original Good Year tires that come on base 991, let me know.

yes, 19' OEMs will fit.

However not all aftermkt 19's will. The rear suspension piece may be an issue.
