Wheel help

I have a set of Cup 2 wheels from an 87 turbo car that I would like to put on my 86 n/a. I've used the search function and after pages and pages of threads have not found a definite answer. So my question is, if anyone can tell me exactly what size spacers I need to put the 87 turbo offset wheels on my 86 n/a car i would greatly appreciate it. I've talked to a few places locally and they all have something different to say. I would like to only have to order what I need one time..If anyone can help, I thank you in advance....

Thanks

what is the offset on the wheels you have, and what is the offset of your stock wheels? the difference between the two should be the spacer you use, barring any other issues like tire/lip interference due to wider wheels etc.

good luck

1987 944 turbo, or 1987 911 turbo?

The 911 still used early offset wheels in 1987, the first year the 944 line went to late offset.
