Looking to buy 18" turbo twist, need some advice though.
Will they affect the behavior on the road negatively?`
They are 8" with 225 tyres front and 10" with 285 rear.
ET front are 52mm and rear are 64mm.
Anyone with a similar setup that can give some input of feeling.
My car is an 928S-81 with brand new set of Bilsteins/Eibach.
Will the car get more nervous on the road due to the lower offset in the front?
My ridehight is 174mm all around.
Greatful for any input.
Here's a pic of the wheels.




Cheers/Peter

Hey Jim,

those looks great, what make are they?
Your car does look a tad lower than mine.

Thanks,
Razze 5's, not available anymore. Car doesn't look quite as nice right now either.

Keep in mind those are 17" and the GT has rolled fenders. I think you are asking for trouble but it seems like different people have different experiences when it comes to tires. I would think you would have to run a max of 30's on the front.
Good Luck

I don't think it will fit.. Here's a pic of a ET52 8,5" wheel on my 928 (ET65).

Hi Anders,

I think you are right.
Half an inch less rim will propably not bring the wheelinside the fender.
Rear should be ok since they are at original ET or very close.

Thanks/Peter
