I'm thinking very seriously about trying to get a set of Porsche Design 90 Aluminum rims under the fenders of my 914-6.
See these webpages to remind yourself what the Design 90s look like: http://www.wheelenhancement.com/Design.htm http://www.porsche964.co.uk/rev_rep/aufwheels.htm My fenders have not been flared or rolled. Right now I have 5 bolt Fuches on 195 R 15 (I think they're 15s; I don't remember for sure). Will the Design 90's fit? Thanks in advance, Douglas |

The 6's and 7's will fit with the use of spacers.....
First picture is a 16x6 with a 205/55/16 tire....it needs a spacer to look right other than that it fit fine...a 16x6 on the rear would work as well....I'd recommend same size tire, but you'll want a spacer to move the wheel out a bit to look correct. The 7 will work with the same size tire.....you'll have to use a spacer that will bring the offset to 35mm for stock fenders....not sure what spacer to use for the 6" rim, but I'd guess a 1" spacer would be just about right. Second picture is a 16x8..it hits the trailing arm, but not by much, something could be done about that (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:http://members.rennlist.com/mueller/D90%20on%20front%20of%209143.JPG) (IMG:http://members.rennlist.com/mueller/D90%20on%20back%20of%20914.JPG) |
