Hi all,

I'm gathering up parts for a future 5-lug conversion. I'm considering a set of 15x7 cookie cutters, PN 911 361 023 (I think the offset is 23.3mm). Does anyone have experience using these on a narrow-body? (I tried the search feature, but didn't see anything on this particular wheel).

Did you have to roll or pull the rear fenders? What about the fronts rubbing at full lock? Tire size would probably be 205/65-15.

Thanks in advance!

Do it all the time. Some rear fenders require a little attention, but they'll go.

I have 15x7 cookie cutters on my narrow body. They fit but just barely. I use 205x50-15 tires. Gives car a great look!

cars vary...
but I've had 3 different teeners that I converted to 5 bolt
the 7's didn't fit any of them with stock fenders

2 of them had to be massaged enough to require paint work

you are much safer going with 6inch wheels
they will fit guaranteed

they make a cookie (and a fuch) with the exact same offset in a 6x15

Thanks for all the info . . .

Now I have some decisions to make, as I was hoping to do this w/o having to do a re-paint . . .

Thanks again!

I'm getting ready to fit some of these as well! Do you have any pictures of these on your car Tom? I was thinking 205/50's like you've done. Would love to see pictures with this combo.

Hard right hand turns, slight marking on sidewall of drivers' side .. nothing to worry about.
