New member here...
I'm piss poor at the search function on this site and was trying to find fitment info on this set up. https://fuchswheelcompany.ca/product/16x7-f...eel-for-porshe/ They list it a 16X7 with an offset of 23.3. From what I have found so far, they look like they might require 12 mm spacers to work on a stock 75 914 narrow body. This car will be at or near stock ride height and a weekend play toy. It currently has no sway bars but that will probably change... I'm planning on using PBR's 5 lug 914-4 front rotors, the Uro 914 5 lug rear flange with turned down PBR 914-6 rear rotors, and stock calipers. I'd like to use this tire. (205/60r16) https://www.tirerack.com/tires/TireSearchRe...performance=ALL I'm new to the 914 and can't figure offsets properly yet on this chassis I would appreciate thoughts, tips and any suggestions. Do I have a chance? |

Thanks you all for the advice.
I am going with 16 X 6 et 36 from one of two suppliers Tires will be https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?ti...romCompare1=yes Wheels: https://dr911.ca/shop/fuchs-wheel-16-x-6-bl...face-36-offset/ or https://shop-us.maxilite-wheels.com/5-spoke-6x16 Thoughts? The Maxlights have some serious certifications. The German TUV certs are some of the hardest ones to pass IMO. The DR911 wheels are less costly, come with caps/lugs and free shipping. Which one would you choose? |
