there are no 1 piece options for use w/ 930 brakes and SC/Carrera fenders unless you use wheels w/ large off set.

Here's what is is used oe on a '78-80 930, 911 hub(same as used on SC) multipiece 304x32mm rotor/hat assembly the bolts to the hub, and a 21mm wheel spacer. Discard the 21mm wheel spacer and then 7ET23.3 to 8ET30mm wheels fit on an SC fender car.

here's what is used on a 930 from '80 on, 930hub which has the 21mm spacer built into it, 1 piece 304x32mm rotor that bolts to the hub, 7ET23.3 wheel

So in order to use the late 930 hub and rotor you would need a custom o/s wheel 7ET45 to 8 ET51, Now interestingly 964 and 993 and 996 used 8ET50 front wheels, but it would be exceedingly fifficult to fit a 9 or 9.5 wheels from those cars in back to match. In back you want 8 ET10.6, 9 ET15 or 9.5 ET19.5. Say you used a 964 8 ET52 CupI wheel in front then a 964 CupI in 9.5 ET68 would need ~49mm spacer to fit the back of an SC/Carrera fender car.

I this is the case and you run a rim that dont have the correct "ET" so that you need to use spacers to align the wheel with your fender. Is it then possible to use a 22mm shorter spacer and still use the rotor?



I am using 993 targa at the moment.
Ok 993targa wheels, these 7ET55 and 9ET55?



those wheels on the 930 Hub hat woud be equivalent of 7ET34 so you would need an additional spacer to bring them down to ~7ET24

in back the 9ET55 would need ~40mm spacer to bring it down to ~9ET15
