However 86 is 23 and 13 resectively f-r. Some of it depends on tire sizes, but the fronts can accept anything from a 21mm to 28mm depending in tires....a 33mm will push the rim/tire into the fenderwell.

A 44mm OS is a really odd size for our cars. The mathematical calculation would be a 20mm spacer, but I do not think they make one, you could go to a 24mm but that will limit the tire size (width).

Good luck with the sale, sorry I could not be of better help.
READ:

56-23 = 34 FRONT SPACER
44-13 = 31 REAR SPACER

or as close as can be had..

IE
http://www.paragon-products.com/28mm...r_p/909117.htm
for the rear
and
http://www.paragon-products.com/32mm...r_p/909118.htm
for the front

someone jump in and correct me if I am wrong...

Anybody interested in these wheels? If so I can bring to 944fest. I just need to know by tonight. I'd possibly be interested in a trade or trade plus cash for some early offeset wheels.

Need early offsets. Don't really have the money currently for spacers.
