16" fuchs on a 914

[jdm72911]

Will later model 6 x 16 Fuchs wheels (from a 911sc) fit a 914 without a fender modification. I would like to switch to 16" wheels vs. the 6 x15" Fuchs that are installed now.

They should fit if the backspacing is the same. I have 6x16 and 7x16 to put on my 914. The 7x16 in the rear will definitely require the fender to be pulled out a bit.

What year is your 914? The later model 914 - actually had a little metal removed around the flange of the rear flare that makes it easier to fit 6 x 16 fuchs on with 205/55 x 16 tires without having to pull the fenders. Jim

Does anyone know the Porsche part number for the right 6" X 16" Fuchs wheel?

The wheel sizes for 911 are listed below.

911 Wheel Weights

Here's a chart showing the wheel backspacing. I think you want 112mm.

My 6x16 wheels are 911.361.020.43 and 7x16 are 911.361.020.44.

They will fit, I have 4 on mine, switching to 7's in the summer.

I have two 7 x 16s if you are interested. $250 each plus shipping. Can send pics

as mentioned, 6's will fit but keep tire no wider than 205. 7's can fit, but often need a bit of massaging. There is only "one" 6x16 size/offset available.
