An extras 20mm over standard. Will you need to get wider alloys? Wheel arches folded back etc as on the GT2.

To get them into the GT2 the arches have been rolled but they are on a 12" wheel.

If you are changing the rears are you going to balance with wider fronts?

And don't forget the wider the tyre the worse it wears on the road! Having played with 911 tyre sizes in the past it is very important to keep the tyre tight on the rim width wise otherwise the tyre rolling about makes the handling very entertaining......

Steve i was going to change mine too for the 315's but like Speedyellow said they will wear quicker especially on the inside edges if you drive it hard.
I decieded to stick with the std tyres. ANother option is to fit spacers although im sure about the arch situation on this one. I asked OPC if the arches would be ok with spacers and they couldnt give me a definate answer.
