16" rims over 3.2S brakes

Post by white944 »

Just a quickie. I want to take the 18" modular rims off my 986S to refurb them but need to keep mobile, so have an eye out for some cheap wheels to fit temporarily I have the chance of some 16" rims and tyres cheap off a 2.5, but will they clear the bigger brakes?

Thanks.

99% sure they won't 18" were optional on an S standard were 17" Only the none-S came on 16".
So you'll need a minimum of 17"
