Searched the world for 40 mins this am and couldn't find an answer, so I'm asking for help.

I have a friend with an extra set of 15x7 late offset phone dials off his 944. Will these fit on my 5-lug conversion NB?

I also ordered 195x65x15 for some 15x6 cookie cutters I have, but are not true. Will I be able to mount these tires on the phone dials?

Thanks in advance

What's the offset on the phone-dials?

7" wheels are a tight fit on a narrow body car, even with the perfect offset. You will have to roll the fender lip at a minimum.

If the offset is positive, you should be able to use spacers to get the wheels to exactly where they need to be, otherwise, you'll have to pull the fenders.

As for the tires, those 195s should be OK, but is depends on the brand and how they are manufactured.
195 is the min. width for a 7" rim. Ideal would be 205 or 215 while 225 is starting to bulge.
