I have 951 7s on a narrow body front and rear now and they work great. The car came with the rear wheel well lips massaged a bit, just mashed down in a neater way than I could do it. Clearance front and rear is just fine.

Guess I don't need to take pictures now.

Hmm Id argue that is you have to "massage" & mash the stiffening lip flat on the rear to fit them, they dont fit "Just fine" poke.gif

Well it came like that. YMMV The massaging might have been due to them trying 8s on the rear first. They were close but rubbed at a desired ride height. No changes to the front that I can tell. I do have a factory installed side to side rear variance that others seem to come with.

The question is will the 7s 951 16in fit great on the back without doing anything to the rears and not have it scrape If the offset is different. Like I said the 7 951s look to be the same as a 911 7in 16in. The fronts are not a question. They only scrape in a tight turn going up a driveway.

Anyone know if 944 front hubs are the same as 911? I was on ebay surfing and saw 944 hubs listed. Visually they appears to be the same. confused24.gif Some of you guys are good with interchange part number stuff.
