Default PSS10 with 18x11 on a C2 996

Car is a 2003 996 C2.

For next track season, I am thinking of switching to a PSS9 (or 10) with dedicated track wheels (18s). For the rear wheels, I am hesitating between 18x10s (OEM) or 18x11s. Same issue with front 18x8 (OEM) or 18x8.5?

For example: OZ Alleggerita HLT

I am not sure if the 18x 8.5 and 18x11 will fit once the car has been lowered with the PSS..

Is anyone running such combination (PSS9/10 with 18x11s)? Any advice much appreciated.

Also, what type of tire size are you running with 18x11s?

Many thanks!

You're heading in a fun direction. 18's are the way to go, many tire sizes in "R" compounds or slicks. Shocks are only one very small part of the equation and PSS9's or 10's might not do much for you without the rest of the package, such as monoball and springs.
As far as wheels are concerned, 18x8.5 fronts and 18x11 rears are the way to go. I'd talk to the guys at SpeedMerchants.com, they have set up my 2010 RS and Cup Car. They know there stuff.
