I would assume 20's on a 997 or even a 996 would rub the fender at this height, right? I have 20's on my Lexus GS4 and needed to do some fender modification to get the car to enter driveways without rubbing the fender well.

Beautiful car at any rate!

they look nice, just like HRE 841R.

what's the pricing on these? for 19 x 8.5 and 19 x 9.5?

20's on a 997 will not rub, the 997 has higher fender arches than the 996. You can't fit 20's on a 996 without fender mods.

You better get a few hundred stakes ready then, and a huge fire, it might take you a while.

That's awesome - I would assume the 20's would negatively impact performance on the 997?

Actually since the 997 was designed with the suspension geometry for 19's, 20's actually don't impact performance as much as you would think. First the tire sizes are 245/30/20 and 305/25/20, those are the same rolling diameter as 245/35/19 and 295/30/19 that most guys are using for the 19" application. The weight on many aftermarket forged wheels for 20" applications vary from 25-30 lbs, so the weight is not really a factor as well.

msindi the iforged daytona was just released at the SEMA show and is available now.
