The above information that youve found is unreliable. Early 944s have an offset of 23mm but 924s have an offset of 52.3mm, the same as ABS offset 944s. 931s may differ (although its been too long now to remember for certain) as they use similar hubs to early 944s, but I dont think so. 924Ss use 52.3mm offset 'phonedials, but theyre only six inches wide. Le Mans special editions used a 52.3mm 7" rear off a current 944 - but the other wheels would look terrible, unless you just wanted them to use as rollers. |

Then theyll fit, as the centre bore size and the PCD is the same. Another (usually cheaper) option is to find a breaker and buy 4x steel space savers off them for next to nowt. ~I realise that some comedians try to sell these on eBay for £30+ each, but most proper (long established) breakers will have a big pile of these worthless wheels stacked in a corner. Its a shame that youre in the NE, because PHSportscars would be able to sort out four not not very much, Im sure. Simon |
