I wondered if anyone has tried to run 17" turbo twwist wheels on their 914. The tires that came on the wheels are 205/50/17 fronts, and 255/40/17 rears. Wanting to go less "chunky" on the size, I was advised to go to a 195/40 front, and a 245/35 rear. Also, it looks like I need approx. a 20mm spacer for the rear, and about 13.5mm front. Any help is appreciated. Confused.

Great responses. First and foremost, the pics are attached. Secondly, I have 7" front, and 9" rear fg flares. I have obviously converted to a 5 lug, and the rims are 17" boxster turbo twist. As pictured in the mostly green project. The sizes appear to be 17x7 front, 17X8.5 rear. Thaks for the info thus far.
