Default Exclusive design wheels - Wider tires possible?

I see that ED wheels are 0.5” wider. Did anyone try fitting 265/325 tires to these wheels?

Do these wheels stretch stock size tires reducing sidewall vs standard CL wheels?

I have run 265/325 MP4S and MPC2 on ED wheels...no issues as there is tonnes of space in these wheel wells

Last time I bought it for wrong reasons (and configured it as such). This time, I am buying it as a proper daily driver. It will get parked outside 24/7 and driven every day. My work situation has changed. Even last time, I said time after time that its not a bad car and that I just bought it for wrong reasons. I stand by what I said and even today I wouldnt buy it as a weekend toy sports car. I have the RS for that. I am actually getting a 992 RS as well. A lot of car activity all at once, fun times

The 991.2 GT3RS 265/35R20 and 325/30R21 N2 spec PSC2 are a perfect fit for the turbo or turbo-S ED rims.

I really like how the Cup 2s fill out the wells so much nicer than the 4S's but I'm a little worried about using the Cup 2s for mostly daily driving.

this is my debate as well...really hope that S5's have beefier sidewalls than 4S's, which are underwhelming.

I plan to have winter wheels on the car and then run cup2s in 265/325 in ED wheels in summer. Obviously we’ll see how cup2s work in hard rain but the cup2s in my 991 RS have a lot more thread than the cup2s I have seen in Z06/ZR1. Those cup2s chevy uses are more like cup2Rs in porsche world.
