Too narrow for a 997.

Spend the money and get what works on your car. Keep watching the classifieds on this site, and you will find something that works.

You can go to www.1010tires.com and use their various calculators to see how the OZ compare to the OEM, particularly the offsets. I'm assuming your 997 is a C2 (narrowbody) - if so the rear offset for the OZ may be too aggressive - why would you want to go to a narrower width in the rear - 20 inch with 10 inch width will look strange.,

Craig, go to tirerack and talk to Damon, he's a board sponsor. 19" OZ Ultraleggera HLT wheels only run $400 per wheel brand new, so $1,600 for the set. That is CHEAP. Check it out!

Great advice, Damon is a good guy to deal with.

You can swap your tires from your OEM wheels (assuming you have 19" wheels)
