Thanks Guys!!!! They have grown on me too, I was a little hesitant about upsizing.

Orient, I mostly agree, I think the Carrera II's are the sweetest rims, but after now living with the Carrera classics too, I also like the slightly sportier look that they have; and a thousand thanks for the PSE advice!

They look great on your car! I just purchased a set of the 997 Carrera S wheels in black from another Rennlister. They should be here by Friday and they are also 19s. Thanks for showing me how my car will set with factory suspension and 19s galeriehughie

Now slam it so those pretty 19's have a true place to call home...right under the fender lip

They are not my cup of tea but look good on your car especially with the colour it is.

BTW...is it me or does the front wheel on the 3rd picture look like it is sticking out at the top? Or is it just the way the picture was taken or the cars position? The rear wheel looks fine in the same picture, it leans in a bot at the top.

Thanks Tmac, don't forget front spacer when you do the install to make up for offset difference between 997 and 996.

Speed, the front wheel is turned slightly to left, it does not stick out.

Love the 19's, Robert. They look great on the car. I was toying with the idea of 19's as well... how do you feel they ride and handle in comparison to the 18's you had previous?
