i guess being in the wheel business for a decade causes me to notice things others do not, they look good but many dealers are putting 997 spec tires on the new 991's because they have em sitting around but the 991 has a totally different overall diameter tire that they added with th longer chassis to get rid of that 'long chassis feel"

that makes sense then, the OD looked right in the fender but the profile just looked so thin (hence my 21" comment) the dealer here locally put the 997 HRE+Tire setup on their 991 and obviously the different OD is easily noticed (the rears have rubber bands versus meat like stock 20's)
