That's a great price in the US if the Euro is equal to the dollar. They fit great on my car with Carrera flares, but you have to watch your tire size and have some negative camber.

I think 245/45x16 is the preferred size.

Yes, those are the sizes I would run for a street tire.

Just as reference for ya, I fitted 9.5x17 wheels on my 87 Carerra today with 255x17x40. Only problem was bit of interference with the two adjusting bolts but the grinder will solve that. Had lots of room still inside the fender if I wanted bigger tyres and more spacer.
Cheers Mark

Dutchie, thats a good price for 9's
Like others said you will have to increase the camber in the rear, and possibly roll the fender lips. 245/45/16 are the usuall size used.
