Hello all,
I have converted the hubs of my 1973 914/4 to 5 lug in order to install a set of 7x15 cookie cutters wearing 195s. I put them on but i get LOADS of rubbing in the rear. I love the 7x15 stance and dont want to go narrower rims What tyre sizes is possible to fit inside the standard fenders ? Your help and experience is greatly appreciated |

I agree with all of the above comments.
Are they rubbing on the inside or outside? If on the inside the rear camber may be off and can be corrected with alignmant shims. I had 205/50 on steel rims an one tire rubbed on the inside. The cars even vary side to side on the clearance. |
