<------------------------------400lbs at each corner.

While mine isn't a daily, I have had to use it for a week straight while my daily driver was apart in the garage. Was perfectly fine, no poblems, still had my kidneys at the end of the week.

His isn't a daily, anyway, he is looking for another so that one can turn into a toy.

Does this mean I could flip the LMs onto the 951? What offset to 88 911s have?

Glad it worked out Tim. PM me with the details one of these days. Im curious how it all ended up.

Kidneys Jeremy, you gotta be kidding. I left mine somewhere around Wheeling a few weeks back when I took the mullet to beautiful downtown Florence.

Ian, he has LM's on his '88 930. I think he's wondering if they'll fit his '86 951.

Are '88 930's early or late offset?

I think 88 911s are early offset -- Late offset began with the 964, right?

Ahh sorry, I missed that....

88 930 is an early offset car, and the 17s from one should fit an 86 951 with out a problem. Both are 25mm offset front and 17mm rear. And on 911s late offset began with the 964, but it came much earlier with the 928.....
