turbo phone dial wheels on na...does anyone have pictures?
Does anyone have pictures of turbo phone dials (16x7 & 16x8, 23 offset) on a late model na? Or does anyone know if it will fit without sticking out past the fenders?

They were factory installed on the celebration edition.

If you are running the factory camber settings, they early offste phone dials will not fit on a late offset car. If you run some aggressive camber on the other hand, I do think they will slot under there.
The early offset wheels will stick out 1 and 1/8th inches further than the late offset wheels, take a ruler out to your car and you will be able to see if they will fit with your suspension settings.

Looks like the fronts should be on the rears based on the lip size.
If it's only 1-1/8th of an inch I'm thinking it'll work, but still I'd like to see a picture if I can find one.
I'm going the other way, late offset with early offsets, but based on your picture I like how it works on your car!
I know what you mean. The lips are speaking to me.

My 85.5 na came with 15", I got a line on a set of 16" 7&8's but they are late off set, so I had to run spacers (1 1/12" rear, 1 1/4" front and had to have the "hub centric" turned down at a machine shop it did not clear) if you tighten the lug nuts a little at a time they snug up even with no wobble (ask me how I know) they worked fine with stock lug nuts aluminum and did a DE and several Auto Cross's and very hard driving and they worked fine, but when I was offered a early off set, set I grabbed them and they look better on the car IMO.
so either way I liked them.
