19" Rims on 993
I'm curious is anyone running 19" rims? I currently have turbo twists 18".
Any problems with 19s? Do you use the same size tires other than the 18 to 19 change? Same width and profile?
Thanks

I'm running Speed Star SSR GT-3 wheels, 19X8 front, 19X10 rear, with Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tires
235/35ZR19 front, 275/30ZR19 rear. Nor problems of any kind, and the ride is much smoother than I anticipated.

not too sure about 19's on a nb car... on the tt's it seems less toothy looking imho. 18's fer track, 19's fer bling.
it's def. a looks thing. not performance.
but everyone as of late, seems to love an
