997 GT3 wheels on my 996TT (almost)
#21
MGS996TT, be careful there is some funky stuff with the offset of gt3 wheels. If memory serves they come with a 5mm spacer on the rears and their offsets take that into account.
Since i installed my (GT3RS wheels) i fitted them with a 15mm H&R spacer. They fit perfectly but i don't think there is any room left. I too run a 315/25/19 and i have rolled lips....
Just trying to share my experience - hope it helps. Wheels are awesome!
Cheers.

The OEM wheel measured 201mm (tire rolls over the edge more than the GT3 wheel). GT3 wheel measured 234mm.
234mm – 23mm spacer = 211mm.
OEM 201mm, GT3 211mm (incl 23mm spacer).
I have 15mm clearance to the inner plastic guard. Difference between wheels is 10mm. So I should be OK.
Thanks for your help, greatly appreciated.
