The 14 inch wheels have a favorable offset
(Closest porsche offset to a 7R) I’ve always theorized that the chassis was originally designed around this wheel) Because of this offset you can get away with wider tires if you want I ran 215/14 for years on mine and they came off of a friends original 6 which ran the same tires on stock fenders |
