Fiske Wheel Fitment

[Rich76_911s]

Hey my Boosted Brothers -

Can any of you confirm whether the wheels described below will work on a 930?

I've been considering going to 17 inch wheels for more tire options than the stock 16's and the Fiske FM5 have been hot on my list of desired wheels, and I recently found a set for sale. However, I'm not too knowledgeable on backspacing specifics for our cars. The wheels in question were used on 911's with wide bodies, so I see no reason they shouldn't work. But wanted to check and see if anyone with more knowledge than I (easily accomplished) could confirm that the wheels below would work on a 930?

Thanks

Description:

Fikse FM5 forged aluminum racing wheels which perfectly fit Porsche 9” and 11” Turbo flares without spacers. The set is straight, without bends or welds, and in good condition minus some regular pinhead sized blemishes from track use. The set is anodized black, lightweight, and would be an excellent addition to a race car or RSR style 911 project. See photos for fitment example.

Front:
9” x 17”
Front Backspacing: 5.75”
Front outer rim lip: 9.875”

Rear
11” x 17”
Rear backspacing 5.25”
Rear outer rim lip: 12”

The specs on my wheels, using the stock 28 mm rear spacer:

17x9", 5.68 backspacing, et30
17x11", 6.18 backspacing, et17

They should fit with no spacers.
There should be enough front spacing left for you to fine tune the fitment with thin spacers.

Do they have a serial number on them? If so call Fikse and give them the number and they will have the wheels on record with the et’s for you. I am running 18 in.Profile 10’s Fronts are 18x9 ET +32 and rears are 18x11 ET +19 hope this helps.

Thanks everyone for the data points.

They do have a serial number. I'll try and dig that info up.

That is a great wheel for these cars, Rich. Very RUF like. They were on my list until I came across my Forgelines (thanks Rey!).

Also, IMHO, 17s still have enough tire sidewall height for these cars style wise, and absorbing some NVH, while still having decent tire choices. 18s have more choices but is an acquired taste, and I bend my 18" M-paralells on my 540 on the ****ty roads just about every other year.
