Ok, so there has been more than enough debate and commentary on what size wheels everyone prefers on their cars. I am actually switching from the 20" 991 Carrera Classic currently on my car to a 19" OZ Leggera HLT (19x8.5 and 19x11). I should mention here that I have an '05 Carrera S, so the 991 wheels are definitely not the originals.

Here's my question though. I'll be dropping from a 305 rear to a 295 and in wanting a more stock set up originally was just going to go with a 235 front. Now I'm wondering what you all thought of having a 245 front (which is on there now). Pro's, con's? Just thought I'd see what thoughts were out there on tire sizes.....

^^^ I guess there was more info out there than I realized. Thanks for the links.....I'll probably just end up going with 235/295

I have an 06 911 S, and OZ leggera hlt with 245/35 and 305/30. Completely by preference I like the extra tire for all reasons to include aesthetics.

Hi Vince. Do you have 19" wheels? 8.5" and 11" wide? I take it you still are satisficed with the wheels and the tire fit?

Those look very nice on your car.

Thanks!
