While I'm wearing my newbie hat, what are the widest tires to work well on a C4? Would like to dial out some understeer by reducing the stagger front to back.

Thanks in advance!
Some of the nicest are the Cup1 which was optional on 964
965 362 124 01 7JX17 ET55 + 965 362 126 00 8JX17 ET52
or
965 362 126 00 8JX17 ET52 + 965 362 128 00 9JX17 ET55

or

965 362 126 00 8JX17 ET52 + 965 362 128 05 9.5JX17 ET68 needs 21mm spacers

Lots of nice aftermarkets too
