Test fit of 16 x7 fuchs , fat 205/55/16 rubber, and Porsche 944 hubs. FITS!!! just , Big of rubbing . A non euro tire would probably help too. Not as wide.

I'm now looking into these for my girl's 1303 that has stock fenders all the way around - anyone try 17x8 (ET40) with 215/40's on back? Lowered one inner spline.
