The sport design wheel is not the same as the Carrera II wheel. He put the carrera III's which are from the 997. I'm wondering what the advantage is, or is it only that he liked the looks of it. They are similar but not the same

Just got them too
Finally got the tires and spacers and found the time to get everything mounted..
Had the sport design wheels on and loved the look but they where a b*tch to clean so got the 997 Carrera III's which are simple and easy to keep clean. I think it make my car more "modern" looking

Can you help me figure out spacer and tire sizes?

Love your car - those wheels suit it perfectly.
I've also got a C2 in black (Basalt metallic), with the II 18 wheels, which I love - they are SO easy to clean compared to the horrors on my E39 M5 (look great though), and a previous A4 DTM which had 17 spoke wheels (yes 17!).
May have just missed out on scoring a second set as spares when I met a guy yesterday who has a mint set but is swapping them for some 17s for his 944 Turbo
- holding my breath his other deal may not go through...
