They will fit the rear no problem on any 928....they will fit the front, but will require a bit of fender rolling depending on how wide of tire you want to run...I have run 265/35-18 on this offset with no issues up front, but I do have rolled fenders in front, which is really just a flattened inner lip

im running 10s with my 8" back spacing wheels up front. also using 1/4" spacers because i have the fenders rolled and pulled out (racer mod). with out it, the 10s up front are not a big deal with a 275 up front. im not convinced 63mm offset is an 8" backspacing, but when you get a chance brian, can you put a level and measuring tape to the rear of the wheel to check?
nice find!

just read the specs! awesome find! yes, 8" backspacing ("8.03")
remember i also have a set of 10" rims that i run the 315s on and those rims are 8.5" backspacing. they fit perfect with my fender mods (all stock fender, with just slight mounting modifications)

everyone saw the 8" backspacing 9.5 rims on the stock 87 i left 928intl a couple years ago (my new racer after 928intl helped with the holbert to new car transfer) with no mods, no rolling with 275s. you only need .5" of space more, most of which is just the rolling of the fender for that. on a stock car, all you would need would to be running 255s up front and its a done deal.

Absolutely true, but in my book 65 on a 10" rim is too far out for the front anyhow. For those who want to do it however, the 58 offset should work for the rear and the $59 price includes shipping - or at least they advertise orders over $50 include free shipping.

Could you run these front and rear on an 85s?
