Wondering if anyone out there is running a similar setup to what I'm working towards...
What offset/backspacing would work for a turbo-bodied early car with 911 struts (raised spindles), 930 hubs, one piece 930 rotors (with built-in 21 mm spacer), 2.25 inch coils, and 993 calipers ?
The typical lindsey setup for widened cars is 17X9.5 and 17X11, the rears should be OK, but wondering if anyone has first hand experience with any clearance issues in the front. Does the built-in 930 rotor spacer cause any problems? What kind of clearance do I need to clear the spring specially under load? Lindsey offers a 9 inch wheel now as well, so this could be an option.
My car is still on jack stands and all the suspension components are merely bolted on but have not been adjusted in any way until I take it to an alignment shop with the actual wheels. In other words, the car hasn't touch ground since the beginning of the rebuild. Tough to take measurements for clearance issues...
Any help is much appreciated.
