Came across a 7 x 16 944 Turbo Fuchs today and tried a test fit---unfortunately, the rim lacked a tire, so when I did a test fit, it was hard to tell. The 944 turbo wheel has a much greater backspace that a 911 Fuchs.
I know some run these on narrow body cars, please chime in. I have an option on 3 more of these. See pics: Attached image(s) |

Hey jim,
My yellow car had those same wheels. I had to roll the lip and push out the rear fenders to make them fit. I don't remember what size tire I ran though. I think it may have been 225's. |
