I bet someone knows this !!

I'm looking for new wheels, and have been talking to forum member,
he has standard 993 Cup 2 Alloys,

my 964 has standard Cup 1 alloys,

Will his Cup 2 rears take a 255 wide tyre please,


cheers
 
Pete,

I'm afraid you're going to have to be a lot more specific than using the word "standard" Cup 2 wheels were available in a range of widths and offsets so getting the combination right may not be so simple.

To fit a 255 tyre - assuming you mean a 255/40x17 - will require a wheel of between 8.5J and 10J and I'm pretty sure most of the Cup 2 rears are 9J. However, some of them have an ET of 70mm - way too much for the 964 - and you'll need some spacers of the order of 20-25mm. You need to be aiming for an ET of around 47mm ideally.

Hope that helps.

Regards

Dave
 
thanks Dave,

will get a get a bit more info and see whats what,
thanks for the quick reply
 
Pete, the offsets and size will be stamped on the rim next to the tyre valve on original Porsche wheels. If they're copies than the information will be stamped on the inside of the wheel (so you'll need to take them off to see what they are).

Personally, like many, I think the Cup 1 suits the 964 better than the Cup 2 and most other wheels.

My car has cup2's on.

17x7 + 17x9 55mm offset on both.

15mm spacers on the rear just to fill the arches a bit.

can't comment on the sizes but I think Cup 2's are great looking wheels and 'light' as well !
 
Thanks guys,

I'm switching between here and 'Parts for sale and wanted' to get all the info

But it seems that as long as they are 'standard' 993 wheels I should be ok,

Just got to haggle the price now, does anyone have any dirt on ChrisW I can use to drive the price down??

cheers

Wheels are 7" front with ET55 offset rears are 9" with ET55 offset. Tread on Conti Sport Contact 2's estimate around 3mm from the wear indicators so about 5mm overall. Will post some pics.
