Some notes if you want to run the exact same fitment on a narrow body 911
1) I'd probably opt for 295 width rears. I've rolled my fenders and the rear bumper still rubs a little bit on the 305's...I'll have to shave it a bit
2) These BARELY clear the front calipers (maybe 1-2mm clearance) so if you're running PCCB or plan on a brake upgrade, these wheels will not fit.
3) Don't be surprised if you have to run a bit more rear camber

Appreciate the kind words!
I am surprised you cleared the front brakes callipers with O disk. How much more room before hitting it?

I am giddy with anticipation. BC forged finished my wheels and is shipping them out to me next.

@westerling They would look great on Arctic Silver. They've been great, no complaints at all! Always get compliments on them.

Some better pics, Avant Garde M510

19x8.5 et45
19x11 et52

Heavy but a nice simple design. Rear offset is perfect.

Will these accept OEM center caps?

Default Apex SM-10 18"
Just got these on a couple days ago. Apex SM-10 flow-formed wheels. 18". 9" front (ET46) and 11" rear (ET60). Conti ExtremeContactForce 245/35 & 315/30. Going from 19" to 18" with the same aspect ratios opened up 1/2" more gap with the fender. But I'm also 1/2" lower in ride height.

Those are good wheels. I had a set of those on my 997 in 18" for my snow tires. Still rode the 19" turbo wheels in the summer.

F: 8.5x19 et50
R: 11.5x19 et45


Hey, did you ever install the TechArt lowering springs? Would love to see the ride height and offsets that result.
Great choice of wheels!
Do you mind sharing the wheel cost? Through Sharkwerks or someone else?
Thanks!
