Such an awesome picture. You've got an impressive stable going! As mentioned in the other thread, we're working on engineering wheels for CL applications, and look forward to updating the community once milestone are met.

We just released 18" and 19" wheels for the C6/C7 narrowbody and widebody Corvette chassis, so the C8 is also on our radar

I’m considering 11’s on the back... will the +46 fit okay as is without spacers? What sized tires are on this car? 11’s might be tight with this offset? This must be close to flush (987)? Thank you

Appreciate your interest. Our 19x11" ET46 was engineered for 981 and 718 chassis, and more specifically the GT4 & Spyder running 295 or 305 tires.

For the rear of a 987 we suggest our 19x10" ET40 paired with 275/35-19 tires which is a bolt-on, yet flush fitment that does not require any modifications. In comparison to the newer gens, the 987 chassis does not quite have as much clearance under the rear fenders for wider wheel configurations, nor does it really warrant going that wide (unless it is a well prepared track car in which case we would suggest looking at 18" wheels).

Can you tell me a little more about your car and how you intend to use the new wheel and tire setup (street only, dual-duty, track only)?

Here is a link to our Porsche wheel and tire fitment guides.

Any update on fully forged 19” 991 fitment? Specifically narrow body for me. I have your 17” on my E90 BMW and love it! I’m holding off on new wheels because I want Apex fully forged 19” in Hyper Silver. I’ve been very patient!

Now that the 19" SM-10 Cayman/Boxster (including GT4/Spyder) fitments are coming down the production line and are available for pre-order, we are focused on the release of 911 fitments. You can expect a community Group Buy pre-sale to go live within the next 30 days or so.

At this time we are currently looking for local 991 narrowbody cars to photograph with these new wheels. We posted in the Nor Cal regional section, and hope to secure some candidates soon!

Edit: Just noticed you specifically mention forged wheels. Forged 18" and 19" fitments for 911's are in progress, but we do not have concrete information to release at this time. This is likely more of a Q3/Q4 2021 release, but we will keep everyone posted.
