i wanted the height adjustability of the PSS9 incase the shock/spring combo is too low for the wheel/tires, i can raise it up a little bit.

Ok, sent to both addresses, thanks! I think the 295's puff out a little bit on the sidewalls so maybe they are a little big? 275's?

got them. very aggressive indeed. u can see the 295s are already stretching. the 295/30-19 is a BIG tire for the car. bigger than u need. factory runs 285 or 295/30-18 on 18'' wheel so the 295/30-19 is a bit too tall. car like this i usually run 305/25-19 with a less aggressive offset wheel.

Thanks for looking at it lucent, I dont think the tire is streched at all, but a 275 would be streched im sure. What do you think about putting 275/30/19 on these 11" and then lowering it maybe 1" on the rear? (no problems w/ the fronts)

I dont think the 305's will work with my offsets.

I've got 275/30/19 Pirelli on iForged 11x19's ET 42 (as I asked) on a 986 Boxster. Doesn't work without rolling the fenders.

It DOES fit a 996 without rolling the fenders (friend of mine has that combo on a 996 Cab).

We're all Euro trash tough. Tires on 11x19 are supposed to be max 275/30/19. It looks awesome !

If you want closeup shots of wheel/tire, I can take them for you.

Yes, can you please take pictures!

I spoke to tire rack & they said the only 275/30/19 that will fit on a 19x11 wheel is the General Exclaim...

Guys got the same thing but on my M3 vert 19x10.5 on the rear,did have 285x30x19,my mate owns a tire shop he said we could get 295x30x19 on. We tried and yes not bad,i also rolled the fenders but when i ride hard...she rubs,its not rubbing that much so im wondering about 295x25x19 will this be OK? and what will the tire wall look like being 25 and not 30 is their much difference?

Your numbers are off...NO WAY a 19x11 rim with a 42 offset will fit a narrow body 996. So either you have a 10 inch rim, or its a 996 C4S which is a widebody. I have a 996 narrow body with a 19x11 rear wheel with a 65 offset...you might have 5mm to play with if you are lucky.
