Want to replace my wheels?
 
I'm wanting to replace my Fuchs (7x16 and 8x16) with 17'' to fit. I have a 1986 sport Euro, would the turbo 17s fit ok?
cheers Steve

You might need spacers. Not sure when the offset changed, think it was in 89.

If they are factory 17's, then yes, you will need spacers. Do a search, I know there has been many threads discussing this.

If you want to sell your 8X16s I am interested.

With correct spacers. But its not the best way to do it

I would hang on to those 16's as you may end up wanting them back!.
Also they will add resale value to the car.
In my opinion Fuchs are the nicest wheels for an older car, esp. the wider 8's or 9's on the rear!!
