What size spacers do I need?
Hi Guys
From the pics below, what size spacers do I need to add to my 930 to make Fuchs work I would be putting on 7's and 8's (16") as could not find any 9" Fuchs. Studs are 5.5cm long (+2") Perhaps as the rears are only 8's maybe I need slightly wider spacers? I will be needing front and rear spacers which were removed as I run with RUF speedlines 9" and 10" (17") currently Many thanks in advance ![]() ![]() ![]()

If you are going from 9 and 10 inch rims to 7 and 8 inch rims, and you want the tires to be in the same external location under the fenders, and assuming the rim offsets are the same for each set of rims, you will need two-inch spacers all around . In millimeters that's 50.8 mm.

Stock spacers on a 930 were 21mm front and 28mm back, by the way.

Thanks Mick - I was looking to go back to stock, but was considering if I could go a little wider to make the 8"rears not look wrong
I know it would be hard to make the 7's and 8's fill the wheel arches - tall order!. Thanks for the stock info though, kind regards, Ben

I think if yo do a google search for 21mm 5X130 71.6 bore wheel spacers , you will find a few. Also search for the 28mm ones.
Be prepared to spend about $200-$250 a pair for these. |

Ummm...only very early 930's have front spacers, something like '75-'78 or there abouts.

Actually up to mid 80's when Porsche changed the front hubs on 930. Other 911s the year may be different. USA 930 used front spacers until 1980 when import of 930 ceased. The front hub was changed on the ROW 930 to eliminate the spacer prior to US reintroduction in 1986.
