Guys I am thinking of having a 6 x 15 fuchs turned into a 7 x 15 ET 47 sometimes called the 7R wheel. 216/60 x 15 for the rear and does it fit without pulling the fender? I assume I have to add a spacer in the rear say 12mm and the rest of the wider wheel goes to the inside???? Anybody run this size and et rears wheel with that size tire?
Thanks in advance for your responses. Jim |

Don’t think you will need any spacers on the back for a 215
The 12mm spacers will give up 12 of the 13mm of offset you gain from a 7R You don’t want to give up the offset or no sense going to a 7R I bought once some 5.5 x 14 Fuchs from Lawrence with 215 on 14’s The 14 was in my opinion the wheel they designed the 914/6 around It has an offset only 2 mm different than a 7R And is the only Porsche wheel made with that offset Laurence ran them on a stock 914/6 They fit |
