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.

Hi chaps, I have a 996 TT and have seen some Cargraphic Racing wheels going quite cheap without tyres. I'm hoping someone on here can tell me if the rear wheel size can be made to work, and any poss downside associated. The ET looks low, but not sure if that is good or bad. I think the fronts should be fine. Cargraphic Racing Porsche 5x130 stud pattern. Sizes are 8.5x19 et40 (f) 11jx19 et 27 (r) many thanks Steve
I think those will stick out too much... My son's C4S has stock wheels with following 8in et50 plus 5mm spacer which is equivalent of 45mm et 11in et45 with 7mm spacer which is equivalent of 38mm et We both think it is just right but some go more aggressive to as much as 15mm spacer...not sure I have seen anything greater than that in the rear.
Ah, OK. That's a shame in that case. Thank you

It may be darn close to working. I have 15mm spacers on 11� ET 45 wheels to put it effectively at ET30. Mine doesn�t rub despite being lowered on H&R springs. For my next trick, I have a set of 11� ET 35 wheels to install. For fun, I�m going to try it with the same spacer. The 10mm difference might be too much, but it�s worth a shot.
