WTB: 8 x 16 Fuchs, 23mm offset (951)

[cliyde]

Seeking a pair of genuine, straight, and true 8j x 16 Fuchs (951.362.117.00), with 23mm offset (951) to fit over BIG RED calipers. Currently running 7x16 23mm offset Fuchs on my setup. Willing to trade those to sweeten a deal if anyone is interested.

Thanks!

i have a set of 951 8x16 23ET on my M491 to trade for a matching set of 911 10ET 8x16. i got room for them under the front fenders

Cliyde,

Big Red (993 turbo) calipers will not work with 16” Fuchs.

I have 993 calipers (same size as 928 S4 calipers) on my car with 8 x 16” 951 Fuchs on the front and they work well, although the radial clearance is very tight and you will probably need to roll the fenders and add some neg camber to make them fit on a narrow body car (SC or Carrera).

Based upon my research (thank you Bill Verburg), this is the biggest front brake set up possible if you want to retain 16” Fuchs.

Hi,
993 Big Reds DO fit snug under 16's x7's in 23.3mm offset front and 16 x 9 rear. Pic of my car below. I'm ready to upgrade to 8's now.
Cheers!

I am running 993 calipers on the front of my 86. 964 tt floating hat rotors machined down to 930 diameter. I need to use a 7mm spacer running the 7x16 951 wheels. They work well. Thanks Rob

Did you find a set of rims? I am 99% sure I have a set at home.

[cliyde]

Not yet. Able to send any pics of condition and offset #?

Thanks,

I took some. Only have my phone not sure how to attach pics from the phone to the forum. They are 8jx16. 23.3.

Fronts are 951 16X7. Rears are 951 16x8 (purchased new)
Fully refinished by Harvey weidman
Never mounted

The 16x7 951 allow for the big red to fit
