If this is so, that an incorrect setting....something that will fit but not work correctly....

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

After struggling with 18 vs 19.... staying stock vs aftermarket... thinking about offsets and considering if 19" wheels lead to RMS and IMS failure... I visited Wheel Dynamics in LA...
What I found was Eli... a knowledgeable guy with great prices and the experience to allow me to trust him regarding the selection and installation of a new set of wheels for my 02 C4S....
I was somewhat disappointed not to have the assistance of the blonde pictured on the website... I fully expected her to do the install.... however the fella that did the work was meticulous, precise and took great care whilst working on and around my car....
The showroom offers a great selection of rims to choose from and Eli carries a good stock of rims and tires.... the shop is clean and tidy and he has an array of specialty equipment ensuring a clean installation and excellent results in the mounting and balancing of your new wheels!
All in all it was a great experience and I am happy with my choice:
Rims: RPK - 038 19x8.5 and 19x10.5 (rear)
Rubber: Nitto 235/35/19 and 315/25/19 (rear)
If you want the offsets and spacer sizes...talk to Eli... he's the man!
Concerning the RMS and IMS... yes I made it home OK but I expect the worst....
Cheers....
Widen your stance with Elephant Racing Wheel Spacers!
Many wheels are not a direct fit with big brake kits or coilover suspensions. A wheel spacer helps by moving the wheel away from the caliper, wheel spokes, or suspension that is causing the clearance issue. If your wheels have the wrong offset (too high an offset, causing the wheels to be too far inward) a set of wheel spacers can correct this by pushing the wheel out to the correct offset.

Honestly I don't really notice a difference (negatively speaking).... I do avoid potholes like the plague... that said I only have a 100 miles or so under my belt driving on them..... performance wise...I don't know yet.... but frankly I made the change because I liked the look... shallow I know.... but hey... Ima a guy!
You'll feel difference going fast on a curved bouncy ramp, the car will tend to bounce sideways a bit more. If you don't track it not much more than that.
Thank you George,
We do appreciate your feedback, nice talking with you and the ride was much more soft on the eyes to compliment your rear GT2 wing.
Here is a photo I was able to ****** just before you left....
Thank you again for your trust and support,

Ok, what do you think your gas mileage is now with 19's compared to before? Curious cause I heard two different stories depending on the rim, weight, diameter etc..
If memory serves correct a bigger rim has a taller gear ratio right??
I think the change is so marginal you can't calculate it.... the speedo still reads 4 mph fast on the speed signs and the mileage sux so I don't even look..... when it's near empty I just put more gas in.... haha...
I'm in the market for wheels. Still doing research, I've been checking those wheels out I really like them......I have a silver cab ...I just wanna make tba best selection for my color. They really set your car off.

Actually the discipline of the set up is correct for this vehicle, by maintaining the correct approx 25-OD front and 25-OD rear for the 996TT you will be able to drive without any issues faced by the PSM, ABS, Speedo and not to mention the possibilities of mechanical fatigue down the road on AWD cars.
From the factory fronts 25.1 to 25.5 is a 1.6% difference
From the factory rears 25.0 to 25.2 is a .9% difference
Using these ratios you should be traveling no more than 1-MPH over the speed limit, at most if you are traveling 60-MPH your actual speed will be 60.9 AT THE MOST.
This is our job here at Wheel Dynamics to ensure our customers end up with the correct settings for the Porsche they drive. There are way too many ebay sellers who are more than eager to sell you something that will fit but won't work correctly.
Let me know if I can further assist any of you,

and yes, we ship International almost every week!

Really???
According to Nitto's chart (see below) the minimum
approved
rim width on a 315/25 is 11"...optimum width is 11.5". OP stated he was sold a 10.5" wide wheel? If this is so, that an incorrect setting....something that will fit but not work correctly....
Fitting WELL over 100 Porsche cars a year we have not had any issues with this fitment. I'm sure you can find plenty of sites with information which speak against lowering Porsche cars yet almost 1/2 of the Porsche cars we fit are lowered. Experience over statements is all I'm offer, my question to you is "How will it not work correct?"
-Eli
There are quite a few shops including ours who will also sell and install forced induction kits for the natural aspirated 911, I'm sure Porsche does not condone this sort of induction on Porsche cars with such high compression but it is one of those items which is out of the normal.

i think the criticism of the rear tire might be a little harsh.
315/25 is probably a little over tire. but its not gonna hurt. squirm will probably be minimal since its a 25 series. and the 315 over tire width might actually protect the rim lip a little bit.
the website are guidelines but are certainly not the end all be all.
i can provide many examples where over tire is fine both for street and autox purposes.
if i was sosoomi, i'd be happy. wheels and tires look good. enjoy.
