914World.com _ 914World Garage _ 225/50/16s on 7s with stock fenders

Posted by: fiid Apr 4 2005, 06:28 PM

Quick Question.

Will 225/50/16s fit on the front of a 914 with stock fenders.....?

I know theres more space in the front than in the back...? Would this work as long as I don't spend any time at full lock?

Thinking about a set of boxster 16"ers,but I need something on the car to drive it to mark's for flaring.....

TIA,

Fiid.

i had 225/50/16's on 16x8 23mm offset Phonedials up front, only place I remember them hitting was the bottom of the wheel well fender where the front valance meets up with the fender.....

They won't with 7 inch fuchs, not enough backspacing. I had 225/50/16's on mine recently, and there was much fender rubbage. 205 on 7's are much happier, at least on my ride.
