Leading evidence: 'Replace hubs' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Recommend rim width range is 11"' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

Porsche uses 315s on the rear on the GT2 which has 12 inch rims so don't worry about stretching...
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.

i remember reading somnewhere that 19's were not really good on a 996 and that issue was one of the problems resolved by the 997.
Those are pretty amazing.
Is the rubber:
245/30/19
305/25/19
This is what Cargraphic has posted as the rec'd for that setup. All I can say is that is a lot of steel and rubber to push around
If they fit, I think they'd look nice. I don't think 12" is too wide for a 315. For the PS2, Michelin's recommended rim width range is 11" to 12". My 285s on a 10" were a tight fit and look it, too. 10.5" would have been better, so I think looks-wise, it will be fine as long as offsets/clearance is OK.
they looks sweet. like many others have said the ride will be less than optimal but then you gotta ask yourself the question, are you going for looks or performance. i've got 19's and 18's and there is an increase in bumpsteer but really, it's not even as bad as some may suggest.
Trust me, you want the 19s. I've got 19s on my C4S with the Porsche X73 lowered suspension. It's incredible how dramatic the combination is. The number one comment I get on my car is the wheels...
Go 19...
Real centerlocks hold the wheels on (e.g. race cars) and unless you've changed your hubs, then you still have lug nuts and the centerlocks are purely decoration.

Richard.....those wheels come like that with the dummy lock or the normal centercaps. Personally I like the normal centercap. The dummy lock is something that looks better if it is real....for example, the same wheel but genuine......
This is really funny, or sad....I'm not sure which. After all this advice I got on this thread, I figured I'd better talk directly w/Cargraphic.....Erik, in the Miami office took a ton of time, over the course of 3 phone calls, to educate me.....he had me go back to the seller, and get serial numbers off the inside of one front, and one rear....guess what.....THE SIZES ARE NOT WHAT THE GUY WAS ADVERTISING!!!!! He listed a 19x9, and a 19x12.....what he has is 19x8 1/2, and 19x10 1/2...these aren't appropriate for a widebody......
What I learned from Erik is that they have a really close relationship w/Porsche, and their main manufacturing is directed to Porsche....and it would be a shame not to take advantage of making the perfect match between car & wheels....
It sounds like it's going to get a little expensive around here, but I think I've learned my lesson about trying to save a buck.
Good job doing the research Richard! Most people don't take the time to make sure they are getting exactly what is advertised. All to often people post here that they got burned on a transaction and the reason usually is b/c they didn't do their research and/or tried to save a buck.
This was a great example of what to do when looking to make a high dollar purchase.
