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

Am ordering some Roock wheels from Germany and just wanted to check what everyone thinks ideal width should be to fill arches on C2 996 ?? Thinking of 8.5" fr and 10" rear but will I still need spacers to push wheels out to edge of Arches ?

POST 2Original post

Your unlikely to need spacers but it all depends on the wheel offset. I have a set of RH 8.5 / 10 x 18's and they fit a treat, only trouble is that if you want to lower the car I will need to have the rear arches rolled to stop them fouling the wheels, so bear in mind if you are thinking of lowering it a well. Regards
