For camber settings i must ask our customer. No worry, the wheels will fit perfect.

If I am correct the car is running KWs from Richie at Milestone 71 as is mine.

I don't imagine the car needs to run such aggressive camber to run the wheels. Just makes use of the space.
As per mine runs pretty aggressive set as favoured by Richie.
I believe he knows what he's doing but you'd need to contact Richie directly for his formular.

Thx Giles, I just had the camber dialled out of mine as i wanted a little more feel of 'agility' and a little less feel of 'gravity'. More Mohammed Ali and less Joe Bugner :-)

Hi Jcx.
Weirdly when I went from lowered springs to Richies set up I thought the car was totally different and waaay better!
I'm using a Clubsport wheel which i feel is too fat.
Be interested to drive a car with a different set up.

Beauty of these cars; so (almost) infinitely adjustable. And 'feel' is such a personal thing. I now have 30' of camber on the front and 1degree (60') on the rear. This reduced offset (1 had a 1deg on the front before and 2 degs on the rear) makes the car much more agile and more adjustable on the brakes/throttle.

Hi, Since 500Km I have a new set of 18" on my 964. As it need to be sitting a bit lower I'm leaning towards a set of 17" Fuchs.... would like to keep some comfort ;-)
I thin I will put this set online and order a 17" set when sold

The red one with gold fuchs are also 17" if I'm not mistaken?

Mine are no replica's but genuine forged Fuchs wheels.

These are even lighter than the original 964 RS magnesium wheels.
