Thea are bbs FI-r from the gt3 that I used on the .2 targa gts. The rears did stick out a bit for me, and I wasn’t planning to do any suspension modifications.
I know the original thread was GT3 wheels on GTS, which I considered, but as others mentioned the Turbo wheels also work. I can verify that I put 991.2 Turbo S ("3") wheels on my 991.2 Targa GTS with no issues. In fact, the rear wheels are slightly narrower but the offset means they are within 1 mm on the outside and still fit the same size tires.

I use the DWS06+ for winter and switch back Michelin PS4S for summer. They work amazingly well in cold conditions - I even drove on snow with no problem. They definitely give up some confident handling feel compared to the summer performance tires, but they are also quieter and certainly more capable in sub-50 degree weather.

Thanks.
Picked up a set of used wheels / tires (Alpin PA4) for the winter, but will replace them worn Michelin winter tires with either the Michelin Pilot AS4 (have them on another car and am very happy with them) or the Conti DWS06+.
What size DWS06+ are you running? what is the width of the rear wheels?
GT3 inspired but different. Supreme Forged SP4. Made in US custom offsets.
Gorgeous! I want these except in a satin silver or platinum. They are centerlock, yes? How did you order them? Was it a full custom order or do you start with a design and then customize it?

Reach out to Eric at Supreme Power. He started Supreme Forged making fully forged and machined wheels in California. I worked with him of his styles, he matched to my TTS offsets and I chose a brushed black translucent tint finish. 6-7 weeks to make and shipped to my door. He can do 5 lug (mine are 5 lug ) or center lock. Weights are good 9x20 f 22 lbs and 12x20 rears 25 lbs, Really happy with the workmanship and great to work with.
"FEA on all each and every wheel order which shows detailed visualization of stress and ensures the highest level of quality. The FEA analysis makes sure the wheel designs are optimized and eliminate as much as possible stress before going to production. Each of the designs complies w the JWL standards."
Another update regarding the front offsets. I spoke to Elephant Racing and they sell adjustable lower arms, that will allow you to move the wheel out for accurate GEO (The GT3 have shim adjustable arms, C2/S/GTS and the rest have fixed arms). 4-5mm would be very easy and you also get castor adjustment on the arms as well.
So you can fit GT3 wheels with 2mm increases in track at the back (+1/2 wider) so 5mm more track at the rear than a GT3, you can then adjust the front within a reasonable range as the top mounts are adjustable to get camber you want as well so either match the original track at the front adding 4mm a side or move towards GT3 track circa 10mm a side with GT3 wheels https://www.elephantracing.com/porsc...lower-wishbone
Super old post, but considering the same project here: 991.1 GT3 wheels on a 991.1 GTS.
Rears, throw them on. What do I need for the front to account for that net 4mm “inward”. The read doesn’t seem to be an issue.
