Zen thanks for the reply

And I did some re reading of the article and some old posts, and I wanted to make sure I got some things right. With a stock suspension a 17x7 +35 offset will fit well under the stock fenders right?

so In actuallity I only need to make up for that difference in back spacing. So I would need to use a 25mm ( 60-35=25 ) spacer to make it fit. Aprox ~ 1 inch.

So If I wanted to I could simply buy a 1 inch Bolt adaptor and the rims would work. Right?

--------------------

This is what I was thinking. I need to narrow the front beam, given. And I'll be using the CB performance disc brake, Don't really have the resources to go 944. And will need about a 25 mm spacer/adaptor.

but what problems will I run into with the rear? I know the issue with "That Bolt" and the rear bump mount. But will I need to space out the rear at all? Also planned on the rear discs but was hoping to stick with drums for a while.

-------------------

this all seem about right?
how far narrowed on the beam should I go? (I like the new CB beams only 2")
What do I have to do to the rear?
Also how would all of this effect the steering? Would I still have a close to stock steering circle?

thanks Again
Rip
