Default Wheel size option for 993TT

Hi guys
I searched about it, but couldn't find about it.
what's available rims and tires sizes to
993tt with GT2 conversion (getty) , PSS10, and 355mm brembo GT brake kit?
I am looking for Volk's TE-37.
Thanks!

Volk doesn't make the ideal sizes for the GT2 body.

I would run 9.5" - 10" front and 12" - 13" in the rear....either 18" or 19" will be fine. You won't find Volks in this size. Too bad since they are amazing wheels.

I made a set of Speedline 993 RS wheels for Berts GT2 conversion last fall. We sized his wheels at 10" fronts and 12" rears. Part of the beauty of 3 piece wheels is the ability to size to fit the car. Jim

Thanks for answering this question.
Yeah.. TE37 is great wheel, and I am depressed that I can't use it on GT2 kit.

If you can get your hands on the Speedlines like above, you'll forget about the 37s

I'm wanting to change the outer hoop on my 10" rear RS Speedlines to make them 11" to fit on my C4S without the need for a spacer. The GT2 front outer hoop looks like it might be about the right size for the job.
Does anyone know the width of the GT2 front outer hoop and if they are available anywhere?

All i can suggest is to contact jdorociak@gmail.com he sourced the halves, painted and assembled them
for me on my GT2 Speedlines also aquired an extra set of inner hoops for my 3.6 Turbo ,he'll show you
the way..
I originally took the rear outer 2.75 hoop and moved it forward to achieve 10 fronts...Bert

Those Speedlines by JD are beautiful, I used to have the same in Magnesium. Other options you have are Cargraphic Racing or BBS wheels. I have 10 Fr and 12 Rr with 380mm front discs and no issues. Can't remember offsets but I must have posted them somewhere.
