Are they 47mm?
Im doing a conversion and wanna get the track right. I assume the hub thickness changes how far the wheels stick out—is this correct? Should I even worry about this? Thanks -Andrew |

Check the link... Keep in mind that the 930/911 turbo has a wider track.
74 to 89 911 front hubs are the better ones to use. http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=286554 |

I am looking to go with 3in spacing struts, M calipers (or maybe Brembos), and 20mm Disks to keep the weight down. I was just curious if the 40mm or even 32mm hubs would be a better choice than the 47mm with regards to fender clearance or other issues. The 47mm hubs are easy to find so if they are ok to use I will just pick up a pair. -Andrew |
