Thanks!

I couldn't find much information on fitting these so buying them was a bit of a gamble, but with some luck and the help of several tire and wheel calculators I've proven that they can work. Being 19s I was certain they'd destroy the ride quality but astonishingly they ride very well. And personally I think they look much better on the 993 than on the 997.

they certainly fill the wheel wells, i immediately thought when i read the lead in that 19's on a 993 would be just...wrong...but surprisingly they're not half bad looking....left handed compliment there, but a complment it is...well done after all...

Those do looks really nice on your car, it seems to have the perfect stance! I thought I'd seen the lobster claws on a 993 before and didn't like them but I sure don't think that anymore after seeing yours!
And everything looks better on a 993 than on a 997, lol!

enjoytheride you are about to make me buy a third set of wheels... What are the widths and offsets? What ride height are you at?
