Good Luck with those wheels on the roads here in MA!!!!! What did you do with your 18" wheels and was it difficult to get the Carrera off the rear of the car?

BD997

My car came with 19" sport wheels... pasm ... nav... sport seats ... all the toys but in a 3.6L :-) It was a carrera... not anymore :-))

Looks like the 911 badge is slightly off center to the right by about one numeral
So how has the handleing and ride of the car changed with the addition of the rubberband tires...for the better or other?

Though personally I'm not a big fan of Techarts, I have to say I like them on your Arctic Silver car. Don't know about 20's though - after the last nine months, three tires and two wheels on L.A. potholes, I'm thinking about putting RV tires and wheels on my 997S.

I kinda admire your decision.

I am in waltham with 18 inch wheel on my 993, and I dont even want to drive back roads in between waltham and boston city.

20 inch....

May force be with you.

Oh and since you live so close, we might see each other on the road.

I am Asian in artic silver 993 C4S with Turbo S wing on my tail.

I know I wont miss your car

WOW! You need some bigger brakes. But that looks sweet. Did you lower it too?

rss997

You da man.....Looks bad *** and I love the wheels.....I do think the Carrera S looks better on the rear though.

Very nice!

nice

i guess no one is ever happy with OEM, wheels OR sizes.

when the boxsters came with 17s, everyone was putting on 18s
when the 911s came with 18s, people put on 19s
now, 911s come with 19s, but people put on 20s...

one of the sole reasons for porsche redesigning the 997's suspension from the 996 was to be able to handle 19inch wheels better.

i would be concerned about the suspension being able to handle it.

BD997

actually its centered perfecty I measured from both sides and the ride has not changed much coming from the 19" sport wheels....

MJones

Looks off to me!

BD997

numbers are at an angle so it may seem that way... to each his own :-)

BD - echoing your "to each" comment....

Maybe thick here...but i don't understand adding 20" to a chassis that has spent lap after lap on the 'Ring...and desert after snow shower... in development driving on 18" and 19"

Just can't see the suspsension working optimally...but you pay your money.
