I was able to fit 10x18 front and 12x18 rear.

What is your front tire width using that size? Do you have any rubbing issues?

Pirelly slicks... 265/640 front... it will rub fender liner a little when turning and getting close to full lock...but if you are tracking, you are never at full lock unless o f moment.

On a 996TT, if you're not AWD and not looking to run slicks then the NT01s in 997GT3 sizes (245/40/18 and 305/35/18) is a fantastic budget friendly set up at around $1100 a set. I got 8 track days out of my last set. Zero rubbing. Both Finspeed and CCW 18s will clear stock 380 PCCBs. 18x9x12 is popular.

Yes, the all of our models are available with the RT option. We are at Daytona for testing, and will be back in the shop on Tuesday. I will send a pic as soon as we return.

All wheels are cut for your specific application after the order is placed, so all of our models are available for the 991S and all pricing is listed on our website. Our current lead time is 2.5 weeks unless it is something we keep as a stocked set, in that situation our lead time is one week. If you would like a quote that includes shipping, I can get that to you early next week.
