my two year experiment with building a LS3 73 Camaro is over! Couldn't get a shop to finish some things (and it wouldn't fit in my Garage).
I'm a Driver 1st & foremost, so it has been a grind to see a project going nowhere, so my latest pickup is with LS6 Motor! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) |

Just a quick question about the wheels on this thing. They look like (and I’m pretty sure are) 17” Boxster rims. I assume 7” and 8”
wide but do you happen to know the offset? Curious what size tires those are, too. I just picked up a rough 944 Turbo and I like the look with those wheels. I looked up companies that do LS conversions and one of the first places that popped up on my internet search was a place in the same town as me. Had no idea these guys even existed but plan to run by and check out their operation soon. |

Had no idea these guys even existed but plan to run by and check out their operation soon. 944 Turbos came with "early" offset wheels (1986) and late offset wheels (87-89). The "twist" wheels came in 7/8.5 widths on the boxster and 7/9 on the 996. These are late offset wheels. Typical late offset are ET50-60mm.. Early offsets are ET10-23. |
