these are the best pictures of the best looking 18" wheelset pictured on a 997 IMO.
You would need coilovers to run this type of aggro zone wheel/tire bad assness.
Same body though!!
My friend never posts pictures of his car but his is pretty awesome too.

One thing I have noticed is 18s seem to limit your tire choices to R888s or NT101s depending on what width you want to run.
You would also need coilovers to properly dial in this aggressive of a situation as well...also the same body though!!
I also have a 997.1 C4 and the Eibach drop on stock suspension is perfect. It is a 4x4 on stock springs. H&R is a bit too low for my tastes, but if you search around you can find examples of each.
eibach and h&r and porsche row springs are all the same, none are any better than the other and I think all are made by h&r. buy the cheapest ones (probibly h&r)
Next, no matter if its a 18" or 19" the tire OD is going to be the same, so its going to fill the same amount of fender well. if youre a fan of lowered cars, you have to lower it to make it look like that, just getting bigger and bigger wheels doesnt help because the tire OD stays the same
You have no idea what you’re talking about. There’s no such thing as row with a 997 and, no, they are not all made by H&R. Different springs have different specs.

?????? Just curious where you're getting these data points from? If they're all the same then why are people buying "lowering springs"? Eibach and Techart both drop the car about 1" even. Some have suggested that these two are the same springs with different branding. The H&R drop is 1.25".
I have never before seen anyone suggesting that "they're all the same", never mind any credible evidence of that. To the contrary, I have dropped three 997's with H&R springs and the difference can be spotted by a novice. Are you really saying that the OEM springs, Eibach, Techart and H&R are all the same and made by the same manufacturer?

In Decision process myself . Not sure H&R Springs or Eibach Springs for my 997.
