Hello

I have been checking around and found that the following should fit my 86 S2

front 7.5x17 et52
rear 9x17 et47

Soooooo i bought a set of Cup2 replica's, have i been too keen adn will these fit? (Kinda defeats object of me buying them if they dont fit, but im impulsive like this :))

cheers

John

Not sure for certain, but I think a couple of the lads on the 968 forum are running Cup 2s with 928 brakes (Big blacks...?, on their 968s, obviously...), so it should all fit...

I have Cup2's at these sizes on my S4 and they fit OK. The only concern you need to have is the offset of ET52 for the 928. I had these on my older 928S4 with exactly the same offset and they always seemed fine, however, they would feel like they "trammed" sometimes on rough gravel or dirty roads. The correct Offset is ET65 and the later GTS had ET55 so there are some that think ET55 is the minimum you should run.

On my current 928 S4 I have the ET55 offset off a 996.

As for fitting your car - yes they will.

Enjoy
Steve
