Will I be able to fit a 18x11 with a 60 offset on the rear of a lowered NB? Running PSS10's. Thanks!

Yes. 18x11 ET60 is our FlowForm fitment rear for 996 Narrowbody. We recommend 285/35/18's on that size.

I have the stock 265-35-18 on 10inch with 65 offset...
And I run almost an inch of spacer with longer wheel lugs... no issues at all for me.
2001 C2 with coil overs lowered to GT3 ride height and alignment specs.

Thanks all! Not too excited about so much rear tire. Kills the fun a little bit.

I've run 315's on 18x12's without too much issue. Just had to get the the spacers right and tweak the alignment a hair.

Thank you both for the info!

I'm going to try them hopefully but am worried about not being able to rotate the car at all with that much tire back there.
