Posted by: Rod Oct 2 2009, 01:31 PM
Sorry guys, I appreciate your help, but I want to be sure that the fuchs I have been offered are right for my narrow bodied 914.
They are 16 x 6 and I have asked for the seller to send me the part numbers, fo r which I have received the following reply...
Would these be good for me to spend my $$$ on??

I think Jeff might have mis-read
on the 16's, I don't think there is an earyl/late, heart issue
your good
16 x6's fit well
probably 16x7s would fit with a narrow tire..
but the 6's are really safe
your good to go!

I'm running 16x7's on all four corners with 205-60's. slight rubbage on the rears because I need stiffer springs and adjustable perches. Cornering hard takes the tire up into the wheel well too far.

Rod, if you're getting a good deal, jump on them before someone else does.

With all of my Fuching about recently I have come to the conclusion that 50 series tyres are best for a 16" wheel
( I have 60 profiles on my 15" 4 bolts, so a lower profile on the larger wheel should be correct? )

Tire diameter = ((((width * aspect ratio)/10)/25.4)x2) + wheel diameter
there's the math. =o)

Will do
I'll be back with a conversion thread soon...

There is a early and late PN and on the 16x7's the base of the heart early curved and late straight.

I didn't realize there was an early late in 16inch diameter
I learn something new all the time!

So what are the differences between the four wheels, bar the part number?

I found some documentation, All mine are early.pre 85 The 7's definately have a different shape heart.
