Question, do the one year only, 7 and 8 x 16, 23 mm offset wheels fit under stock flared 914s with only minor fender rolling? Has anyone done that? Does anyone have any pictures of one?

I've heard that 7" is the widest you can get under stock rear fenders.

Yes, the wheels fit. You just have to leave off the tires.

The 8 inch wheels will fit but not with tires on them.
That is what you asked.
