| Post subject: | Wheel fit question (for winter tyres) |
Hi, I'm looking for a set of snow tyres, i've seen some D90's off a 964 C4 at a reasonable price as follows; Fronts - 6/52 GK-AISi7mg 964 362 112 01 Rears - 8/52 GK-AISi7mg ET52,3 Firstly would these fit my 91 944S2 and secondly could i put spacers on to fill the arches a bit? i kind of like them being narrower for snow performance but still want that wide look. Thanks Graham |

You could space the rear without any ill effect, although 8"s are relatively wide already. The fronts arent suitable though (although many people have Carrera 2/4 wheels on their 944s): the 944 runs a 7" front, rather than the 6" part used on the lighter 911. If you 'space' this by more than a few millimetres then it will start to affect the steering geometery. |

Thanks for the response - i'll keep an eye open for 944 D90's. Graham |

Only the fronts differ, but 7" rims certainly used to be FAR less common. |
