I've been thinking about putting 17x8 and 17x9 Euromeister Fuchs on my 951. I know that on the front, the brake caliper clearance will be an issue. I plan on running 1/4 inch spacers for clearance. Is anyone actually running this set up? Is there a picture of it anywhere? I've searched for days and the only thing I can find on it is a guy who sold his because he couldn't get the setup to work on his lowered car. (Mine isn't lowered). I can't find anything about it on the net anywhere, and that is why I'm concerned it won't work.

Any help or pics would be much appreciated!

I ran 18x9 & 18x10 in a lowered car no issues at all, it all comes down to have the right offset. what year is your car and what's the wheels offset

The wheels and car are factory early offset...the 9's are et15, the 8's are et10.

Thanks for asking, it forced me to put it on paper. Factory fronts are et23...and that is why they don't work right. If I add 7mm with a spacer on the front, (a must to clear the brakes)the effective offset will be 3. Really out there.

7mm spacer will do the trick
