Anybody have pics of their 911 with 17x7 and 17x9 Euromeister wheels?

Does anybody have some pics of their 911 that has Euromeister 17x7 and 17x9 wheels on it.

I would like to get a good idea of what they would look like on a car before I buy some.

Here you go .. 17x7 and 17x 9 I get a lot of complements on them. Yeah need to lower it a little. I did have to roll the front fenders a little , they would just rub if I hit a larger bump.

I have the Linea Corse Rota Fox wheels, 7.5x17ET35 and 9x17ET16. I'm using 21mm spacers in the front and 25mm spacers rear. Tires are 225/50-17 and 255/40.
Fenders are rolled, all four wheels clear the fenders...

Woah!! 25/21 spacers!! You sure? My 12/5mm spacers with negative camber were already tight fit.

Yes, 21mm front and 25mm rear, no rubbing issues with aggressively rolled fenders. I have -2.6 degrees front and -3.5 degrees rear, so that helps with fender clearance.
I would like -3.5 degrees front also, but I would need longer control arms, the coil over springs prevent further inwards leaning of the struts.

I'd like wider wheels

I have the standard fuchs on my narrow body 1986 and I can probably go a little wider. Are these wheels going to add weight? I like the look, but not really at the price of performance.

I notice all of you guys have 911 SC fender flares.

Maybe the 930 turbo flares will not look very good with 17x7 and 17x9 because the flares will stick out too much or the wheels will be tucked in too much and it will look weird?

Tons of photos in this thread, including some on turbo flare cars. The search tool is your friend.

No rubbing but very tight fit in the fenders.

I know the EuroM's are cheaper, but here's the thing. They look BETTER to me than the more obvious "stepped barrels" on the larger Rota's and Lindseys. And the low pressure casting SOUNDS good, but have no way of telling for sure short of x-raying them. And that ain't happening. I'll probably get a set of 8's and 9's for my RSR tribute and figure out an RSR finish later.

Guessing those are the 7.5's. The 9's would have another step or lip in the barrel, right? Or did they change their process?

Good question... I can't remember... but are easy to take out of the box and snap another photo... Will do so when I get home...
