Default Will 996 GT2 Wheels fit a WB 993?

I know the 996tt wheels will work.

Just curious about the offsets, the offsets on a GT2 are a little different than the 996tt, as well as being a little wider.

Fronts -- 8.5"x18" et 40mm
Rears -- 12"x18" et 45mm

Will they work on a WB 993?

Can't comment on the rears but the fronts will fit (I currently run 9" ET40).

Also no comment on the rear but the front won't fit very well
8.5" should be ~ET50 ET 40 might work as long as ride height isn't too low but they7 stick outboard more than normal


Dave are you sure your 9 is 40? I have 9ET52 front and can't see anything sticking out further being able to fit.

They will fit. The rears need aggressive fender rolling. I'm not sure about rolling the fronts. Rob King, the owner of Scargo, has (or had) a set on his car. It looked pretty good.
