Looks like the tires are sticking outside the body. Doesn't look right at all to me. To each his own though...

Not bad but what about the 3" void between the tires and the fenders? That stance looks awfully tall for a 911.......almost like a Cayenne up front. Did you raise it?

I had just lowered the car off the jack, so the springs were not compressed - hence the 4x4 look!

However, my 996 is higher than the 997 S my buddy has, when side by side - not sure if that's a stock difference, or if his S has anything lowered...

Think it just might be a lower stock ride height thinking about it.
