I'm sure this has been asked before, but can't seem to find the answer anywhere so I thought I'd ask the experts here at 'World.
Will 15x6 911 cookie cutters ('72-'75) fit under a stock fendered 914 (with factory 5 bolt suspension) without any difficulties with sharp turns, caliper clearance, etc.? Wheel part number is 91136702300. Thanks. |

I have 944 15X7 cookies on my car. 205's are as wide as I can go. I stretched my passenger side rear fender about 1/2" the driver side fit. I have no rubbing issues even at full lock. The fronts are easier to fit wider wheels and tires than are the rears.
Dave Darling does bring up a valid point about the potential of the inside of the tire making contact with the inner front fenderwell at full lock. We ran into this with the track car 9X16 fuchs clones all the way around. Since it is only at full lock, it isn't an issue. I still want to try wider rubber (275's like some of the hopped up 944 Turbo cars that I chase). Good luck with your project. Attached thumbnail(s) |
