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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I tried searching and mostly got results for C4's. I'm pretty sure those answers are valid as well, but I thought I'd ask the direct question, straight-up. So, What are the widest Wheels (i.e. 18x9, 18x11") and Tires (i.e. 235/35, 355/40) folks are running on a narrowbody 99 C2 Coupe (to be specific...) Regards, Lomotpk

POST 2Original post

Ask Dave at Wheel Enhancement. [email removed]

POST 3Original post

I am running 235/35 19 front and 275/30/19 rear. Lowered w/H&R...I am going to 18's for better autocross and mountain driving performance. Dave @ wheel enhancement is installing my 18' carrera 5 spokes next week.. I have heard that 18's are the best for narrow body performance unless running on a big fast track. In reverse and full turn of the wheel and i get some rubbing, but thats rare situation. Robert

POST 4Original post

did you buy your 5 spokes new there and if so how much either way thanks.

POST 5Original post

Yep, they were 2250 new, but I got a set of take offs from a new car that a customer traded in for new wheels... $2600 +tax for less than 100 mile Michelin Pilot sports ribbed.....and Silver center caps.... Best deal out there and they are very nice to deal with... Robert

POST 6Original post

SPR, Where in San Diego are you? I'm in Carlsbad... Robert

POST 7Original post

I run 18x9s in front with 245/35/18s and 18x11 with 305/30/18 in back. I've used 265s in front before but they rub quite a bit. I'm pretty sure these are the largest wheels/tires that you can use on a narrow 996. Hope this helps. Jim

POST 9Original post

I'm running 235/30/19 in the front w/ 315/25/19 in the rear on a 19x11 (cargraphic rims). with yoko AVS they don't rub, but with the sport conti 2s it looks like i need to roll the lips in the rear if i start taking turns hard. Oh, and I'm running HR coilovers on the highest setting all around. Jeff
