Build overview

First, we selected the **BBS E88** because of its timeless appeal. Next, we chose sizes that respect the GT3 RS suspension. Because these wheels are forged, they stay light yet strong. As a result, steering feels sharp and predictable.

Fitment & Specs

The front wheels are 9.5 x 19" ET41 with a 1.5" lip. For the rear, we used 12.5 x 19" ET48 with a 3.0" lip. Because of this setup, clearance to calipers is excellent. Therefore, there is no rubbing even under hard cornering.

Rear 12.5 x 19" ET48 3.0"

Because fitment varies per car, we always advise a final check. However, these specs are proven on multiple 997.2 GT3 RS cars.

Tires & Stance

We fitted Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires: 245/35-19 front and 325/30-19 rear. These tires deliver grip in dry and wet conditions. As a result, cornering confidence improves. Plus, ride quality remains balanced for road use.

For daily use, this combo gives predictable traction. On track days, you can push harder with consistent feedback.

Design & Details

The silver centers match the GT3 RS aesthetic. Because the lips are polished, they catch the light beautifully. Then, contrast against dark calipers makes the wheels pop. Finally, hardware adds subtle detail without distraction.
