Hey folks,
Pardon my ignorance in advance. There's a gentleman who is selling 19" RUF wheels that I'm considering for my 2002 996 4S widebody. The specs on the wheels are as follows:
Front: 19x8.5, 55 offset
Rear: 19x11, 67 offset
He indicates that the tire size for these wheels are as follows:
Front: 235/30/19
Rear: 315/25/19
I went on tirerack.com to find a set of tires in those sizes and could not come up with any matching sets. He indicated that Toyo makes the correct size but I couldn't find any. He also said I could run 305/25/19 on the rears but I had no luck in finding these either.
Can anyone tell/recommend to me what size tires would fit on these RUF wheels? Attached are pictures that he sent me of the wheels mounted on a 996 TT.
Thanks in advance for your assistance!

these are essentially 997NB offsets... though those offsets are not optimal for your 4s. Those wheel offsets will fit a 996NB. Weird that it looks great on the TT... is he using spacers?
As for tire size you can put on 295/30-19... 305/25-19 are very rare (alot of manufacturers have dropped that size)... 315/25 are another option but its a heavy tire.
