Cayman Wheels?

The online configurator from Porsche now lets you select stuff like the Turbo wheels in 19x11 on the rear with 305 tires. What's up with that? My first year CS could never fit that kind of meat. Did they change something in the rear?

Yes, I tried a couple forum searches for info on this, but couldn't think of specific enough terms...

You shouldnt have seen that size listed the turbo wheel for all 987 is the same width as other cayman wheels and the tires are 265's

11" wheels dont fit a stock cayman

I figured as much, but if you click the little "i" over the wheels in the configurator, it definitely says they are 11.5's with 305 tires. I suppose someone screwed up when putting it together and included the 997 data.

I knew you couldn't get them under MY car.

Thats funny because I was just on the Porsche site yesterday specifically trying to figuer out what the widths were on the Cayman Turbo wheel and which tire went with it. Though I never found it. There are so many posts on here with people saying they are getting turbo wheeels so they can use wider tires......still confused.....
