Jim,

16X7's will fit perfectly all around with the offset that the rear of the boxsters have. Unfortuntately I have 16X7's and 16X6's. On that pic the 16X7's are on the front and fit perfect with no spacers. The 16X6's are on the rear and I have just over 1" clearance on each side on the outer lip. As soon as I find another pair of 16X7's i'll swap out the 6". If you get a full set...you can put the 16X6's on the front but you'll need spacers to bring it out some (i think it is about 15mm difference in the offsets of the front/back boxster rims).

Or you can do what I did, which I've been told is fine as long as you keep the same size tire front/back.

Jim, could you make a template of how your mirrors are mounted? I've got the mirrors & backing plates & all the electronics, but I'm not sure of mounting placement.

I have the mirrors too, although not the backing plates. But I could never figure out how to mount them. If you can do the template thing, could you send it to me too? I would like to put those mirrors on the car.

I got the backing plates from Dave @ GPR, but I think you can still get them thru the dealer.

Jim, can you post a few more pictures of your beautiful silver '75? It's very easy on the eyes!
Thanks, Wayne (type47fan)

I LOVE your yellow slope nose!! Is that a kit or did you do your own fabricating? Some day when (if) I grow up, I want a 914 just like that one!!! Oh, and more pics would be very nice too. Got ant from the front?

I will post more pics and I will measure the mirrors as soon as I'm done with my brake caliper rebuilds (all 4 calipers including the inner/outer adjustment seals!), pedal cluster rebuild and clutch cable replacement. I'm on a mission to have these done for the Fall Foilage!

Thanks, I thought all I had to really focus on was two new Jack Posts and a new rear trunk panel from AA, the car has never been in any wrecks and is in great condition, then I joined this club and learned about the "Hell Hole". That ended up changing things. I've been following Micahels thread on his project pretty close. I don't think I will need to go quite that far, but, we'll see. I have since bought the Inner Longitudes Stiffening Kit from Engman and a Chassis Stiffening Kit, etc. been following the threads on the Fender Flairs too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
