BC Forged MLE81
19x9 @ 45mm offset (-2.2 camber) 235/35-19
19x12 @ 42mm offset (-1.5 camber) 305/35-19
Zero rubbing and plenty of room to upgrade the tires (will do 245/325 soon). Will adjust coilovers to lower it a bit more but will do that when I get new camber plates.

That looks great! MLE81 are super popular with Porsches!

Hi All,

I'm picking up a 997.2 C4S and am curious how these wheels I already have might fit. Wondering mostly if the 40mm rear offset is going to make them stick out from the fenders? Obviously would be better with a wider rear, these were originally fitted for a 2024 718.

Thanks in advance.

Front: 9 × 20 ET 50
Rear: 10.5 x 20 ET 40

That's a narrow rear wheel for a 911. You want at least 11" and 12" is ideal. It's going to limit the tire width you can run to about a 285.

your car is a wide body so the back will accommodate 12” wheels… as for offsets somewhere between +60 to +50 with 305-315 for safe fit.

NB cars accommodate 12" wheels too. The GT3 has them standard and I have them on my wife's C2S and my C2S too. I have 325s on my rears.

I don't believe Porsche ever equipped a 997 Carrera with a 12" rear, but agree that's what he should get.
