Well if it fits may be bitchin

Who has rear shot and wheel well shots of 15"X7" 5 lug fuchs on narrow body?

I didn't think they would fit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

If you put 205 50 x 15 on 6" in front and 7" in back how will diameters effect things?

help please my education continues

Along with my endless enjoyment of my car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)

Have 15/7 cookies on all 4 on the six conversion. Driver's side rear is very close with 185/65/15, but then I'm not a real racer anymore.

Oh, no pics ... I'm to lazy.




I will help you oh lazy one:

ok so I bought these 15X6 and 15X7 cookie cutters

http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-911...ie-cutters.html

Going cheap route to get it done on my 5 lug, these will take my current tires. Just like the struts will take current ball joints and inserts.

Still looking for 2nd set of rims to add sticky rubber (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

Those should fit fine. I tried 16x7 with a 205/50/16 and it fit on the left side but the right side was just up against the inner lip(worn suspension bushings (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) ). Plus I think a few other people have said that one side has more space than the other.

What size tires are those John?


They are 205/60 R15 on all 4 corners. Not the highest performance, but it is a street car and the speedometer is relatively accurate.

I just got mine on today (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) 205/50's on 15x7's. I need to massage the rear fenders just a tad, but I am extremely happy!

Those look good on there. I like the cookies as they are relatively inexpensive and are factory parts.
