Are you running 295/30 or 305/30 on rear? I think your rear wheel is 11" wide, or 11.5"?

I need new rubber and trying to decide if will keep 295 or go with 305 to give a more muscular look to the rear.

Thanks

305 is possible but not an ideal width for an 11" wide rim. That being said, I did run a 305 width tire on my 11" wide RUF wheels without any issues. Also ran 305s on my 11.5" wide Champions and now on my 12" wide Forgelines.

I've got 12 inchers on the rear of my GTS now with 325 tires and they look perfectly normal. Fill out the fenders just like I hoped they would.

My old C2S and the GT3 which replaced it. Despite the GT3 being my dream car, I still miss that C2S

rear is 11 inches and the 305s work fine. the oem 997.2 turbo runs 11 inch rears on a 305 tire (same with the c4s)

the 305 rear will look great on your car imo. feel free to pm if needed.

Can you elaborate a bit? I think the GT3 is a dream car for a lot of us, and many of us have thought a lot about trading in for a GT3, but sometimes maybe we forget that what we have now is special in it's own way too. Would like to hear your thoughts and why you still miss your C2S
