3.2 Carrera HRE 527s wheel tire size

[Briankamak]

Hello Pelican Superheroes,

I’m hoping to purchase 17 inch HRE 527s wheels for my 87 narrow body Carrera. The suspension and ride height are stock.

What is the correct/maximum wheel size and offset as well as tire size, that I can use without any issues (rubbing, scrapping, need to roll metal, etc). Just looking to plug and play ��

Happy Sunday and thanks in advance,

Brian

Assuming 17s
either 7ET25 & 9ET15, 7.5ET 26-27 & 9ET15 or 8ET28-30 7 9ET15 or 9.5ET19

215/45 & 245/45 is probably best for most purposes, 22/5/45 & 255/40 can be used if there is a need

Howdy Bill,

Thank you for the lightning fast reply! You are a rockstar!

What would be a scenario where I’d “need” the 225/45 and 255/40 over the 215/45 and 245/45?

And would those larger sizes create a rub issue on a narrow body?
