6x15 will fit fine. The "shallow" 6's are about $5-600 for 4.
6x16 also fit and can sometimes be found for $400-500. 7x16 will likely require rolling/pulling the rear. In all cases 205 is as wide as you can go, sometimes only 195. Of course the 5.5x14's work easily (factory option wheel on 914-6). All are readily available on Ebay, thesamba.com and other places. |

Also 5.5x15 Fuchs are available and fit, although 6x15 is better for the 205 width tires.

yes and there's a chart that has been floating around many threads here that lists ALL Fuchs wheels ever made with offset and other specs and part # ... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool_shades.gif) Andy |

No, there's only one offset for 6x15 Fuchs, even though there
are 2 different types. There are 6x15 phone dials that are 52mm offset. And there are 6x15 cookie cutters that are same offset as Fuchs. |
