Wheel Offsets = Spacer needed ? for my 911 SC

currently my 911 SC narrow body has a set of Cup two wheels
17x9 Rear and 17x7 front ET on both of these wheels are ET55
With spacers (haven't measured them before)



I got ahold of a set of wheels and they are

17x7 front ET55 and 17x8.5 ET50 Rear

I assuming the fronts wheels spacers I can just leave alone

but I'm confused by what size spacers I will need for the rear


BTW the wheels I'm fitting are Boxster Sport Classics 1

thanks for the help

I put a set on my car....the front spacer is ok, you'll need a 1/12 inch for the rear. BTW my tires are 215x45 fronts and 255x40 rears....

sorry that I missed your earlier request for pictures.... there are not a lot of these wheels on 911's out there....... i like they way they sort of bring the SC into the 1990's(LOL) BTW I paid $200 for the complete set (no centers) and refinished them myself for $30 worth of paint and sandpaper......

$200

Wow double take
They sell these for $1000-1700 on ebay and forums....I've looked all over for 2 years.

Let me know if you find 1 rear 17x9 for $50

I got lucky (in my eyes) and found a set on craigslist sometime ago for $500 locally
I though I got a great deal
yeah what size are the rear wheels 17x8.5 or 17x9 ?
