I've been a 997 C4S owner for a cpl of months and loving every minute of it... mostly I got the C4S so I can winterize it for mild snow driving. However, I am finding that it is ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE to find a proper 17/18" Winter wheel/tire package for this car! I just cannot believe 19" winters can do it and the sidewalls are just way too low for any clearance. So, has anyone had any luck finding an 18" wheel/tire package to fit to C4S without any isses? Is there any Porsche 18" wheels that fit? Am I pretty much stuck with 19s? Any help is appreciated! Thanks

The Tire Rack (sponsor) has 18" winter packages for the C4S - is there a problem ordering from Tire Rack in Canada? You might also check with WheelEnhancement.com (another sponsor) - I got my winter package from them.
Really? Cause when I tried to setup a winter package I only got 19"! I will double check. Also, is there any OEM Porsche 17/18 wheels off Cayman/Boxster/996/997 that would have proper offset for C4S widebody? Thanks
Go to the sponsor page and click through, I know that makes sure Planet Porsche gets credit for the customer reference. I also think there's either a pm or email link to a Porsche specialist at Tire Rack who can probably answer all your questions.
Good idea - you might want to pm Jim@TireRack or send him an email: [email removed] with your question - he is the designated PP rep for Tire Rack.
I just got Carrera IV 18" wheel with Nokian Winter tires from my dealer complete with TPMS for my month old 09 C4S Cab. A bit more expensive than TR but not too bad. Got them for about 20% off Porsche MSRP.
Can u PM me how much? Thnx
