i have a nice 914 with flairs , 916 look. it has 4 lug with a 5 lug adapter that spaces the rims out about 1 inch. could accually go more than 1 inch out though, i am going to put new tailing arms and 911 front struts and hubs, and change the 4 lug to a real 5 lug. of course this will move the wheels back in about one inch. what is the best and most cost efficient way to get the wheels back out to fill the wheel well properly. more spacers or wider wheels? if wider wheels work which ones wil do it?

Spacers will do the trick, you may need to change your lug bolts if they are to
short. If you get your rear hubs/ trailing arms from Eric he can take care of that for you. |

I have seen alot of guys that run larger spacers in the front because the fronts are narrower and to fill the wheel wells they need to be bumped out too. |
