[QUOTE="Dave07997S, post: 8340333, member: 10915"] I think it's more of an issue of sidewall support. The min recommended wheel width is directly off of Nitto's website. The .5" difference for the min recommended wheel width is probably not a real safety issue but it will effect the handling of the car. If I was to do a 305 on a OEM wheel I would have it widened. Porsche does the opposite..they stretch the sidewall out to an inch of their life. The 997S comes with a 295/30/19 tire on a 11" wide wheel. That is the max recommended wheel width for this tire. In fact the GT3 comes with Mich PSC's in a 305 width on a 12" wide wheel, .5" beyond the max recommended wheel width. Dave [/QUOTE]
