Will 16" turbo teledials (7" front and 9" rear) fit an '89 944 lux??? (currently fitted with 15" teledials)

I have a set of 16'' Turbos on my 2.7 so they should.

Do they bolt straight on or do I need spacers too?

There are various offsets available in teledials, assuming they are the larger ones (52mm and 60 something) they will bolt straight on, without spacers.
This is the most likely situation, but if they are early offset (23mm and approx 30) they wont fit - spacers or no spacers!
The confusion is that the early versions should be 7" and 8" but the later ones 7.5" and 9".
Find out the offset, cast in either by the valve, or on the rear of the spokes.

Thanks for the info. I almost went for a set recently which were early offset - would have been a big mistake!

To clarify: if theyre 9" wide at the back, theyll be 8" wide at the front, made of magnesium and off an M754 1987> Turbo Cup car.

I frequently over look the 1990 model Turbo/928 D90s too, which were 7.5" and 9" wide.

D90s were available with 6", 7", 7.5", 8" & 9" wide rims.
