Will this wheel setup fit?

Since I posted up one of my customer's car and you all were gracious enough to let us know your opinion on his wheels, he's looking at these but we're not sure if it'll fit.



Here are the specs:

19x11.5 J62 - 315/25/19
19x8 J46 - 235/35/19

Thanks everyone!

Edwin

What car is it?

If it's a 996 narrow body, I think the 315s in the rear are going to be close, but with that offset, they should be fine. The fronts will fit.

I agree, NB *should* work but those tires might be an issue in the rear

11.5 on the rear is a bit wide imo. The best choice, with any wheel/tire, is to test fit first.

+1 on the test fit - although those are some sweet wheels. they definitely will show the 'porsche racing heritage'.

...19x11 +63 seems to be the safe bet on 996 NB's...

...19x11.5 +62 = 19x11 +56...it "can" fit depending on camber/tire size/tire brand, but that is all up to the owner...

...Those front Kinesis wheels are good to go with those tire sizes on a 996 NB and shouldn't rub at all, but those rear Kinesis wheels definitely WON'T fit a 996 NB with the 315/25/19's mounted on them...Very sick wheels though
