I believe you can’t (shouldn’t) run anything above 18s on the earlier cars. There is info around on it.

19" first became a factory option on the 987 I believe. No problem with those, right?

The suspension is different for the earlier cars. I believe it changed/was reinforced in 2000...

I think it was only the first year 97 that you can’t run anything over 17(?) or there will be some structural issue at the back end. There are threads that address it.
