Welcome to the 6. The mod bug is definitely contagious. Now get yourself some PSS9s!

hi no-substitute,

they are 19's on 235 30's on the rears...and for the fronts..., dang. i can't remember. i'll check and get back to you on those. for the 996, no spacers needed, but for the boxster we used 7mm spacers on the rears. the brand is RPK 038, purchased at Wheel Dynamics. They are hyper silver with a 4" polished chrome lip. they are fairly lightweight, although, i know not as much as the HRE's and Fikse's. Those are quite a bit more $ and I'm sure lighter weight, and better quality, but we are modifying 2 cars, so the budget is being shared. =)

both cars are getting the pss9's soon, as well. this will make it look a bit lower and better in my opinion.

i'll PM you the exact size of the tires when i get home. i'll need to double check the front size as they are offset.

Those are the wheels I have been looking into. Are they 10.5" wide?

235|30|19 on the rear? Not seeing how that size would fit.. Found a good calculator and it would not even allow 235's on a 10.5" wide wheel.

glad you're going with pss9, night and day... the only bad thing is, this mod will only open up doors to other mods... welcome to the modaholics club, at least we have our brothers/sisters for support.... time to go buy some new wheels now, will post them up soon.

no substitute,

okay....here is the info on them. i just copied and pasted. maybe this will help?

Race Inc. RPK 038
Wheels come in 19x8.5 et45mm and 19x10.5 et52mm Huge 4" Rear Lip
http://wheeldynamics.net/Wheels.html

yep, they are 235/30/19's on the rears. the fronts are a bit smaller. call and speak with carlos or roland. they know me well. we've bought several things from them, including 2 sets of rims/tires. tell them jody from seattle, with the 996 and the boxster sent you. they also have them in black and chrome as well.

/shrug, the wheels throw it off, its a full RSR gt3 race body from porsche germany. The only thing thats different is the wing bases have the gt3 stnciled out of them. It would fit better with some racer wheels, im still deciding what to do about that
