Im definatley interested in your recomendations for a cayman GT4 fitment. Specifically if the 285/30/20 is a adequate substitute for the OEM 295/30/20.

There are some out there with 305 street tires on the rear of their GT4s, but Ive heard Hoosiers run wide so Im doubtful the 305 hoosier would work. (My 295 Cup2 is a tight squeeze on my lowered car).

Can you PM a quote.

I have reached out to Hoosier for dimensions. They are advising that they should have that final info in a few weeks.

I Just found this on time as I was doing research for a set of 19" wheels for my GT4.....this could be an option instead of buying 19".
Keep us posted Damon.

I have 9" and 11.5" rims. Do you think these are going to fit on a Turbo S?? I wonder about clearance, since I don't know how these fit on the wheel.

It's hard to say. The R7 is a very square tire, but their listed tread width is about the same as the OEM 305 Pirelli? Section width will be a full inch wider on the back tire.

For comparison purposes, here are the specs for the OEM PirelliP Zero N1:

245/35R20 PI PZERO N1
Rim Width Range...... 8.00 to 9.50
Measure Rim Width.... 8.50
Section Width........ 9.7
Tread Width.......... 8.4
Overall Diameter..... 26.8

305/30R20 PI PZERO XL N1
Rim Width Range...... 10.50 to 11.50
Measure Rim Width.... 11.00
Section Width........ 12.5
Tread Width.......... 11.4
Overall Diameter..... 27.3
