Rims fitting isue? ie Will they fit my awsome Car?
Will 04 996 widebody (not turbo) 19" rims fit on my 996 99 cab?
The rims are on sale on kijji all it says
THESE ARE THE ORGINAL 19" FACTORY WHEELS FROM A 2005 911
The owner says he had it on his widebody 996 04. not turbo.
thank you
PS. Can i fit 4 17" wheel+tire in a 996 cab? so I can drive my 17" home. i figure 2 on the passanger seat, one in the back and one in the front trunk?

If they are widebody (turbo or not is moot) wheels, they won't fit on a narrowbody car.
Those wheels pictured never came on a widebody though so maybe they are actually narrowbody wheels that he was just using with spacers in which case they'd be fine without the spacers.

Mike you need to get the offset numbers on the wheels (50, 52, 54, 65, etc.)
but the consensus is that they won't fit.
As for carrying 4 wheels and tires in your car I'd have to say that's not going to happen.

there should be a part number on the back right? like 996.000.000.00 something right? I will ask him for that.

A part number would be good but the wheel size and offsets will be cast into the back side of the wheel, then you will know. The offset is usually preceeded by ET, so it will say ET50 or ET65. See if the vendor will send a picture with that info.
As a reference I have 7-1/2X18 ET50 on the front of my car and 10X18 ET65 on the back of my car. That is the stock size and offset for our narrow body cars.
