That diameter looks very large. Rear - 660 to 680 is what I understand works.

997.2 cup runs a 680. The 705 would be too tall.

The 325/660-18 fit my 997 Gen 1 RS street car just fine with no issues.

The 305/690-19 worked very well for me. The 715 will likely rub with the extra diameter.

My favorite size is 315/680/18, I find the car is much easier to drive with a taller side wall. The back end is much looser if I use a 660.

+1 Setup from Goldcrest works perfectly.

Their site leaves much to be desired. New or scrubs, how much?

Sorry, they provided the setup work. I buy the tires new from Competition Motorsport.
