997GT700

I have a friend with a new 991 Turbo with 600 miles on it looking to change his out. Will his wheels fit my 997.2 Turbo?

They will fit.

But offsets aren’t the same so it will not look good, IMHO.

They're really close. Quick answer is yes they'll fit, but the fronts will fill out and the rears will still be a little 'sunk'.

997 RS Centerlocks are 19x8.5 +56, 19x11 +51
991 Turbo S wheels are 20x9 +51 (3/8" or so more aggressive, fill out the fender a little bit more) and 20x11.5 +56 (basically the same in the rear).

I asked about this and a member sent these to me in an email.







"Doing this is a bit tricky but we love the way it looks! We’ve done this twice. The first way was to purchase a set of stock 991 turbo takeoff wheels, put the correct TPMS sensors in (the 991 and 997 are different frequencies) and mount up the right size tires. We ran this way for over a year and had no issues."



















"After a year, I personally did not like the way the front tire sidewall was pulled away and the offset was uneven compared to the rear. This little didn’t bother my wife at all and most folks would have no idea that this detail was bothersome. I went to work and found a different (more complicated and expensive) way to fix my issue and have these wheels. Here is how it looks now."

Not bad! Thanks for posting Big Swole!
He put 235's in the front rather than 245's, so they do look stretched where the rears look good.
I like the 20in size, and would probably do this myself with GT3 wheels if I found a "cheap" set.

Best wheels for our cars are the Spyder wheels! I have a set in black and silver. The rear can be set up with lower and upper control arms. I am in the process of doing this. Will push the Spyder wheel 10mm out for a nice fit. Stay tuned! Parts have been ordered.
