can i fit 245/45-16s on the front of a 944S? I can get them onthe front of my turbo S with no problem but those fenders are rolled.

Thanks

Depends on your alignment. I have maxed-out camber and the car is lowered with the m030 struts and I get a bit of rubbing on the inside of my tires against the brake line bracket and the fender liner. I don't come anywhere close to the outside of the fender well, though.

I run 225/50/16 race tires, which are really more 245 sized (r-comps love to lie about what size they are) and they fit okay.
They will probably fit but might occasionally rub. Don't know if it's worth it.

As far as I know the alignement is a street alignment and the car is not lowered. has adjustable Konis

Fit 245/45/16's on the front of my n/a, should fit the 944S aswell. For Jackie's car?

are those the 16s on the phone dials in your pics?--- i'm trying to locate the max r- compund width i can run on the 15 in phone dials.

15'' phone dials only came up to 7'' wide. I would not put more than a 225 on a 7'' wheel.

i currently just have my 15" phone dials on right now so i cant tell you the exact size of my other tires, but i think they were 245/ 45/16 in the rear; anyways when i got some new rims They came with some pretty crappy tires, but the small time i used them on my 86 NA they did rub a bit and the fender put a couple small slices in them. They will fit, but i'd roll the fenders to be safe

Jeezus 245 for an NA is way too much tire!

I've got them on the front of mine and no issues with the car lowered 2 inches.

I can only have a small slice cause you'll be eating the rest of it!!!! I love volunteering at soup kitchens.

That makes sense.. I always wondered what takes you so long and where you go between the Start and Finish line at the events. Now I know you are on a Humanitarian mission. Maybe you would go faster at the beach if you put the Sand tires on.
