Looking at ordering some new wheels what sort of offsets you guys running 19s on et??

Thanks

Offsets and width will be the same as your oem turbo rims

45 rear 50 front

You could go to a 8.5 front and a 12 rear and use offset

Front 40 rear 45 rears may be tight
 
I run 19s on a 996 turbo

8.5 ON THE FRONT ET 53
12 ON THE REAR ET51
 
I remember reading that it's important to keep the rolling radius of the front and rear similar to avoid damaging the centre differential.

What's the largest permissible difference ?

I actually prefer 18" wheels, but there isn't much choice in tyres, so I'll go 19" when I see the right rims.
