I am very happy with the style, but think I have chosen the wrong offset at the back, they look a little too offset, I will see what my camber settings are (it was 4 wheel aligned at RPM Technik) Its certainly less than my GT3. No arch noise as yet but it looks too protruding to my eyes
They are 12"x19" ET58, I wonder if it's possible to have 4-5mm taken off the mounting face to get to ET62/63 ? I also wonder what camber is suitable for fast road, looking at the rear of my GT3 I am showing less camber on the 997. However *** packer maths with a spirit level suggests I am just under 2 degrees already on the 997
Any advice appreciated
That's too much poke for my personal taste. My 19x12s are et74 but my car is odd for some reason. The GT3 19x12 are et68 which is a very good fit and look on most 997s.
Lowering and a camber adjustment might get you the look you want as you're not far off.
The GT3 997.2 runs ET63 with CL so no spacers is as below. I did read that the GT3 997.1 ran with 5mm spacers to get the same offset so was ET63 effectively if you look at ET53 it looks okay aggressive bit not outrageous poke. I really did think ET58 would be the right balance. I hope the camber is modest and I can get the look that works for me as well as the right handling

I personally don’t care about all this offset stuff, but that is a great looking car. WOW, Enjoy
Looking better with a drop to 672mm at the rear and the front now measures 655mm. I think the camber is 2.2 degrees or so, by using a spirit level and steel rule across the wheel, so suspect the room for more static camber is limited

Glad to hear the additional rear camber worked in getting the rear fitment where you wanted it.
Am up to page 80 something today...researching all wheel choices.....I have a notion as to what these wheels may cost, but they look sooooo much better than the traditional "LM" style wheel.....love the fact that the "lips" are not super shiny polished. Love these, love BC K12, and Rotiforms (mesh and the 3 piece LHR??)......nicely done down below.
