The documentation I have found indicates the Carrera and Carrera 4 ran 17� rims which are narrower (7J and 9J).

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a 2003 996 turbo I would like to use this winter and am trying to find rims and snow tires for it. The documentation I have found indicates the Carrera and Carrera 4 ran 17� rims which are narrower (7J and 9J). Can these be run on my twin turbo? Will they clear the brakes? I only have big jumbo aftermarket rims so need to buy used ones. I found some 17" in good condition and a good price. Narrow tires give more bite in snow so that is a benefit as well. Any info would be appreciated. I am in Northern BC, Canada. Neal

POST 2Original post

No, unfortunately the Turbo brakes are too large for a 17" to clear.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks very much for that, Saved me the hassle of paying the money and making the mistake! Neal
