19" Fuchs for 997 - anybody tryfit these to SC/930?

[Flojo]

Hi!
I cannot immagine that it comes out near to looking nice, but just by curiosity:

did anybody tried to fit those 19"-997-fuchs to an SC or 930?

While I like the look of the 17" zuffenhaus (sp?) fuchs, anything bigger on pre 964 cars just looks cartoonish.

While these might physically fit, there are many questions raised. dynamic qualities, safety margins concernig local loads on components, plain looks...

Edit: You're in Germany? I don't see these getting a TüV approval either.

Offsets are for later cars - you can't make them work for anything under 1 and 1 1/2 inch spacers (maybe 2 on the rear)

exactly. this is why I ask you guys in the US ;-)

@billybek: I guess so too... I was just wondering, as some might be crazy enough to give it a try (no offense)

these fuchs are just beautyful... and if I'd have a passat-CC for example, I'd give it a try

They are beautiful, interestingly they dont look as great to me on the 997 as the old fuchs do on our cars. I much prefer the GT3 wheels and some of the others to the 19" fuchs. Not sure why?

[Flojo]

why?
'cause "fuchs" look "classic". even in 19"
the bodyshape of a 997/991 is way to modern.

It would look like this.

All it takes is to see one of the newer 911's wearing these
Fuchs and BAM!!! there will be copy-cats
