OK. Now that we have established that 18s fit PCCBs... what wheel/tire width fits the Carrera S. Note that the standard 19" Carrera S wheel is wider than a standard 18" and has a wider tire patch. Is there an 18" fitment that matches the track and tire patch? that is important to match the CS handling, PASM, etc.

You can buy 18" wheels in any size you want. I ordered 8.5" wide fronts and 11" wide rears with the correct 997 narrowbody offsets. Go to Tire Rack and search on a base 997 with 18s and you'll get several wheel choices. I think you can also search 997 GT3 and get 18" options but for some reason they haven't fixed their system to show the 18" options for 997S. Wheel people know what to not order in terms of wheel and tire widths in order to keep PSM and ABS in line.
