Post up some updates after a month! My cousin has a set on his Macan, they don't seem to fit quite as good as yours though, so they rattle a little and the movements scratched the handle a bit.
That not the only problem with oiled filters. In addition to causing issues with cars that have MAF, the oil dries out and needs to be re-applied about once a month. Since the filter is extremely difficult to access on the 991.2 no one is going to be reapplying oil. You might as well not even be running a filter if you have an oiled filter that is dry because it hasn’t been re-oiled. This was an issue that was studied extensively while I was an engineer at Ford, specifically with K&N filters and F150/250 work trucks, and the conclusion: don’t run oiled filters if you care about engine longevity.
thank you for the insight.
one less thing to reduce the chance for maintenance.

I'm thinking I may swap for some chunkier tires or possibly throw on some spacers. I dig the aggressive, meaty, and flush look. Some fine tuning to make it the way I envisioned will happen soon.

That’s a great looking combo! I love those wheels, they are channeling RUF vibes for me!
Those tires are going to be about an inch shorter than the factory 245/35r20 and 305/30r20. The 265/35r19 and 325/30r19 are a closer diameter, but seem a challenge to cram under a narrow body for all but the most aggressive setups. If you find a nice fat sidewall size for 19” that is 245 front and 305 rear with good tire selection let me know!

Thank you, sir. I spent quite a bit of time looking at pictures of various tires and the ones I ultimately bought look ok me thinks. However, I really want there to be a bit more side wall and less fender gap without lowering it any further. The car is quite low for the SF Bay Area. If anyone reading this wants some yokahoma advan apex 601's, I have 2 sets. the first set has about 3k miles. they are 245/35/20 & 305/30/20 and the 2nd set less than 100 miles. 255/35/19 & 305/30/19

Got the car back yesterday after having paint correction and clear bra installed.
I installed headlights with replaced lenses (from Rennlights - thanks Paolo!) and today I added two coats of ceramic. My car looks almost as sexy as it did when it rolled off the production line.
