OK, some of youknow I just picked up a 914 with a 3.2, baby needs new shoes.

Currently the car has 7&8's on it with 225/245 16'S

I have 7&9's from my 911

Im thinking of morphing them and using the pairs as 8&9's.

would 245's all around be ok? I want to try and get 315's on the 9's but im not sure if that will work.

Given the weight distribution of the 914 is it ok to use the same sized tires on it ( for track use)?

Will those 8's fit?


The car currently has 7&8's, I dont know if they are 951 wheels or if they are from a 911, Ill have to check the #'s when I get a chance. ( my friend is letting me store the car at his shop, so I cant just go out and check )

Also the car currently has a set of Yokohama a032r's, and I have a sticker set of the yoks for my 911 sized 225/245.

Ill probably mount the 245's, then move the 8's to the front and put the 9's on the rear.

I have a DE in mid april, Ill report back from there.

Ill have to calll John Burgett and see what kind slicks he has available that will fit 16's
