19 inch Sport Classic Wheel

Has anybody tried to fit those wheels on a more classic model?



Or is it ridiculous with those dimension?

They are:
8.5x19 ET55 with 235/35 ZR19 wheels in front and
11.5x19ET50 with 305/30 ZR19 in the back

Regarding the weak Euro it might be worth a try (just joking, they are 5.600,00€ including the tires)



keep dreaming....

but it is Fuchs!

They're not Fuchs at all... They're lookalikes, different brand, cast even.....

Wouldn't suit an older model, maybe a 993, but older? Nono! (it could fit, but it would not suit)

That size would fit under a 930 with spacers on the rear.

Jeff Alton's 17-18 inch Forged Fuchs style wheels are much better suited for older 911's with needs for such low profile tires. I'm not sure Jeff is making 19 inch wheels. The length of the pedals are starting to look disproportionally longer than the original 16 inchers and don't have the same esthethic look.

I like the new Porsche retro wheels on the new cars. Thanks for the comments on the wheels I worked on. I am not involved in the Forged 17 inch fuchs style wheels anymore, the product is still being produced available through Zuffenhaus still. They can be reached at Eurowerks | Zuffenhaus [ Charlotte, NC Porsche & BMW Service and Repair ]. Keith will be able to help you out.

My business focuses HRE/Champion/Forgeline/Fikse wheels, as well as others.

Cheers
