Had my teener going on 6 months now. Several upgrades accomplished already:
swapped pedrinis to fuchs installed Porsche emblem Aiwa Cd Component speakers Ultimate air dam air dam and rear valence painted to match the car. I'm "ok" with the fuchs... but the car needs a set of 16s or 17s and to be dropped 1.5 inches. I want to do a 5-lug conversion.... I also want to keep the fenders stock. Is there a kit? A kit that includes everything I need for a 5-lug conversion. I have the money to do it right, just wanna make sure I get quality stuff. I'm going to go with an aftermarket wheel, so a nice brake upgrade is definately in the works. Any suggestions? Places? Companies? Parts? Help! |

914/6 rotors are just rotors, not hubs. Regardless, all the 5-lug stuff from the pre-1990 911 will work. The lug pattern is 130mm x 5. Keep this in mind as today's common 5-lug setups are not 130mm x 5, they are usually 110, 115, etc. I believe only a few German manufacturers still currently use the 130x5 lug pattern. If you have your heart set on some 'ricey' rims, you may have to consider redrilling your hubs to fit those lug patterns.
