As a reference point, the 997 Cup came with the following (EXPENSIVE) wheels:
Rear 18x12 ET30 (997.362.140.97)
Front 18x9.5 ET37 (997.362.136.96)
These dimensions would get you +4" in the rear but you would need some hefty spacers (which it looks like you already have) as the inside has 42mm less clearance. |
I do eventually want to put some wheels on the car that fit, unfortunately (as you pointed out) 911 wheels won't work. I actually have 18x12" wheels on the back on my 911, all of the extra width is on the inside of the wheel. This is possible on 911s since they have a multi-link rear suspension and don't have the long track arm that gets in the way of the wheel. If anyone knows of a cheap 17" wheel that can be ordered in custom offsets please let me know.
