Stock sized Bridgestone Potenza RE930 Pole Positions. I think the 245/305 would fit a little better but I already had these tires on the OEMs and are almost new.

Those look great. They do look large, I did wonder if they were 20's too.

These wheels add about 8lbs over the stock Carrera Classics for a set of 4. For street use I'm not going to sweat it.

Hmmmm. I'm a relative 997 noob (currently have an E92 M3 but being proactive about my next purchase,) and thought that the stockers would have been closer to 22 or 23 lbs. I was expecting the increase to be more than 8lbs. My bad.

Again, nothing wrong with how they look...
