944 brakes/16inch Fuchs/66 Beetle

[Alex]

The 6x16 Fuchs has an offset of 36. I am not sure if that will fit under the stock fender......I have not done it.
The numbers are not that bad so I think it that it might fit.

Front:
You can fit 7X17 ET52 with a spacer. You have 1 inch less width and you would not need the spacer.

Rear:
You can fit 7x17 ET52 some actually have fitted 8.5X17ET47.
Both require a spacer. With the Porsche 944 brake that increases the track by 26mm the spacer is not required anymore.
The ET52 7x17 rim might still require a little spacer so it will not hit the spring plate. I am not sure about that though.
It seems that the bigger problem will be the rear.


If you would use Kerscher brakes it should fit without any problems. The track increase of the Porsche brake though makes it difficult. This is just my opinion. I have not seen cars that did it but they might be out there. Do not just throw out your idea unless you are sure that it will not fit. Others might be able to help you more than I can.
