Default 997.1 GT3 wheels on 997.1 Turbo
has anyone done this? If so I’d love to see pictures to see how the offsets are. I think maybe it would look good as a brushed bronze on my basalt black

I run RS wheels on my turbo, I would assume
You can do the narrow body wheels with spacers.

I installed black GT3 RS wheels on my former black/black 07 TT. They looked great and fit without any problems.

I think it's:
Stock Turbo Wheels
8.5x19" 23 lbs. 8 oz
11x19" 27 lbs. 14 oz.

Factory 997 GT3
8.5x19" 24 lbs. 5 oz.
12x19" 30 lbs. 13 oz.

For sure run RS or GT2 wheels or the rear would look too sunken in!

Nice but I personally don't like the chrome ring. It looks like an old fashioned white sidewall tire. JMO.
