Daz,

What in idiot terms is 12J vs 11J? Is it such a difference that I cannot use turbo tyres?

The width of the rear alloys are different. 11 inches on the turbo and 12 inches on the GT3. Although they both use the same 305mm width tyre.

See thats where you were getting me as i thought they had the same tyre size. So if they do use the same width tyre even though the alloy is 1 inch wider will the tyre not fit all the same?

Quoted to delete reference to the alloy size. Tyre sizes are the same.

but now you mention it, will it make a difference or will it just push the tyre wall out an inch?
