I need some guidance and suggestions from the experts on Porsche turbo wheels for my stock '07 Cayman S. I've found a set of new wheels and tires from an '07 911 Turbo but am unsure as to whether they'll fit or not. I saw that for the '08 Cayman S Turbo wheel option, the rear tire size is 305/30 while the '07 option showed something smaller. The advertisement for the new set is 235/35ZR-19 in the front and 295/30ZR-19 in the rear. Will these fit my car? Do I need to consider spacers to get them to fit?
the turbo look wheels available for the cayman/boxster are not the same as the wheels that come on 997 turbos .the wheels that come with the turbo are wider .
The Turbo wheels are wider, but can be made to fit. 11" is possible on 19's for the rear. You will need a spacer. You need to get the offset to between +40 and +38 in order to get them to fit. I am running 19x11's in the rear with a +38 offset. My wheels were also Turbo fitment and had an original offset of +44. I added 6mm spacers to get to +38 and they fit perfectly with my CS lowered on H&R springs.

My rear is 10" with +42 offset and it's almost flush with the fender. Your 11" with another 6mm of spacer must be sticking out a fair bit. Is it safe to drive?
Anyone try 11.5" rear? There is a set of SSR GT3 11.5" 35offset on a 996C4s that I can get. I have PSS9's which help clearance but not sure if 11.5 will go in.

You would need at least a 15 and maybe even an 18mm spacer inside to clear the suspension, and the wheel would stick out 9 to 12mm more than an 11'' turbo wheel, offset 51 with a 14mm spacer that already comes out to the very edge and requires a fender roll if you are lowered and use a tire any wider than 295. So, I would say no, unless you want your tires to be sticking out slightly past your fenders, and if you're lowered that will probably lead to a lot of rubbing.

Compare to the 19x11, it will stick out 5mm more on the inside and 5mm more on the outside of the wheel.
Yes our sponsor Raderwerks makes replicas of all Porsche designs, in many fitments. For example, you can order the 9.5'' or 11'' rears from him, depending on which tire widths you want to mount.
