What is the largest tire you can shove under a 140# springed 914?

Does anyone know what offset, on a 8'wheel, is centered in the wheel wells?

I'd like to put the biggest wheels and tightest tires a 914 can stand. Even if some modification is nessasary. Saw these Saleen wheels that would look hot on the car.

You will have to change your bolt pattern as the Porsche has 5x130mm bolt pattern. As for biggest tires you can use, it depends on brand. 205 or 195 are most likely in the rear. Do a search as your question has been discussed here manny times. Those wheels look nice, though.
