Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

16 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hey all, Wanted to share a few pics of my newly acquired DD. It's a 99 model purchased with 88K on the odometer. So far so good, I am really liking the A/C compared to what was called an A/C on my 911 SC. These pics were taken after I got done replacing the rotors and pads, a very EASY DIY. I added the Valentine 1, and smoked lenses up front. BTW, has anyone lowered just the front? I bought the H&R springs and would like to decrease the wheel well gap, but I assume lowering the back would cause some serious rubbing issues because of the 19's. Is it possible to lower just the front and not suffer from the imbalance? TIA for your replies. Before: After:

POST 2Original post

I purchased the rims from "wheel dynamics" they are the 808 series...you can't beat them for non-track daily driver duty..

POST 9Original post

The wheels are very nice. Are the rears 275's?

POST 10Original post

Sweet 996! Too bad they don't make them in a 18"

POST 11Original post

Congrats on new ride! I will suggest if you drop car you should do both front and back. What about coilovers?

Nice to see another 996, the new wheels add a lot.
