Default phone dial fitment on 968?

Will late offset 15" phone dials work on a 968 for winter tire use?

I don't think they'll clear the brake calipers in the front...

They didn't fit on an 88 951 when I tried it, so given that I think they probably wouldn't fit a 968. The brake caliper on the front was the issue - the back was OK.

No.

The early offset 15" Phonedial clears non-M030 brakes, but would of course stick out past the fenders on a 968. IIRC the problem on the late 15" is the ID of the barrel; a spacer won't solve the issue.

There are very few late offset 15" wheels that clear non-M030 'small' Brembos. I think I've read some of the period BBS wheels might. There might be a few current aftermarket selections if they are designed to be high clearance.

If you have M030, that is 16" only.
