When converting to 5 lug by purchasing PMB Performance's kits (www.pmbperformance.com), what Fuchs wheels are best to select if you do not want to roll your fenders? Do you stick to 15" wheels or can you move up to 16"'s without a problem? Can anyone provide a resource or listing of part numbers for the wheels that have the proper offset and that will fit? I did a search on the site but did not find anything to answer these specific questions. Thanks

for total stock unmolested fenders, 15x6 and 16x6 are the perfect size rim.....

a 205 series is the widest you'll want to run.......

and i posted on the other site for ya....

same as herr mueller said

the 7x15 911R wheels are really nice and fit prefectly!

now the qwest is to locate a set for under $1500

yes. in my experience.

you can run 7" under a stock rolled lip
you can run 8" under an agressively pulled rear fender....
you can run 9"s under standard GT flares....

I had to roll my rear fenders alot to get 7x15 cookies to fit with 205x50.. cracked the shit outta the paint.

Nope, they're same.

6" are ET36
7" are ET23.3

cookies are just cast and way cheaper thats why I use them for AX/track wheels

Cheap and light is good for AX, been using cookies (6") for
a long time. I'm going to weigh the new Boxster wheels (7x16)
before I make the decision to install them. Let's see if Porsche
was concerned about weight in their 'chick car'.
