8X16 Fuchs up front on early 944?
 

Hi, I have an early 944 and it's not lower. It currently has 7X16 ET23.3 Fuchs on front and 9X16 ET15 Fuchs with 21mm spacer on the rear.

I read somewhere that 8X16 Fuchs can be used up front. I believe there is 2 versions of 8X16 Fuchs; ET10.6 and ET23.3, which one to use up front for an early car? What is the part number? With or without spacer? And what is the best tire size?

I just want my front wheels to go out a bit and match the rear without rubbing. Thank you!

Go with the 23.3mm 16x8" up front. The stock 16x7" ET23.3mm Fuchs in front on the 951 will already rub the fenders if you hit bumps in mid-corner. The ET10.6 is meant for the rear of a 911.

Thank you. The search begin!

Also if you get the 16x8" Fuchs # 951.362.117.00, the spokes are offset to the outside more to give you greater clearance for big calipers if you may upgrade in the future. It's also lighter than the 911 version.
