I am building a 944 cup car, have 1986 turbo brakes and want to run 15 x 7 23mm offset wheels. Any luck?

I am running 15x7 phone dials with snow tires on my 951 right now, but they are late (52mm) offset and I have massive spacers and its pretty tight in there.

So 951 calipers do fit inside a 15" wheel? Or do you have the wheel poking out so far that the brakes aren't even inside the wheel anymore?

Supposedly phone dials will fit, Fuchs and cookie cutters won't.

If you need to unload some fuchs or cookies, pm me.

I ran the 1991 S2 with some 15 inch phonies. Im pretty sure the brakes were the same as 951s


It was a late offset car with early offset phonies

When I have a chance I'll pull my 15 p.d.'s off my 83 and try them on the 951...

I have fit 15'' late offset phone dials on my '87 with 4-piston Brembo's on the back. Its a tight squeeze, but they do fit. I never tried to fit them on the front.

Someone on Rennlist had a early 951 that came "factory" with 15" wheels. Anyone remember who that was?

No the brakes are inside the wheel, but its really tight.

I dont know how the early wheels are shaped inside so I can't say if an early wheel would fit....

I just mounted up 15 x 7, 23mm offset phone dials on the front of my 86 951. There is no clearance issues or rubbing. The factory calipers are with 1/4 of the rim. Should work fine. I will double check the rear fit later. I wonder if people have just assumed they would not fit or if this pertains to late offset, 52mm, hubs and ABS.

mjensen
