8x17 +31 et and 9.5x17 +13et. Will they fit SC and Carrera cars?

Hey there Pelicans,

I've got a set of CCW Classic wheels 8x17 +31 et and 9.5x17 +13 et. I'm wondering if these wheels will fit '78-'89 911s? I'm pretty sure the fronts will fit but I'm not sure on the rears. Perhaps with some negative camber and max tire width of 255?

What does the Pelican brain trust think?! Thanks for the help!

The fronts will fit fine, the rears not so well

9.5ET13 sticks out a bit far for comfort, it can probably be made to fit w/ ride height/tire and camber restrictions

I have 7.5x17ET35 w/225/45-17 and 9x17ET16 w/255/40-17 on my NB Carrera, with 22mm spacers on all four wheels. with your wheels you might have 7mm spacers in the front to clear the suspension struts with 225 tires, the rear ones should work with up to 275 tires. You might need spacers in the back too, to clear the inner wheel wells, and roll all four fenders. My wheels are a tight fit, but they all clear the fenders, see picture:
