Wheels vs Spacers Problems
Need help!!!
Upgraded my 86' 951 to Big Reds and 17" C2 Wheels. Installed with the following spacers and studs:
FRONT WHEELS
#911.331.671.00 (10) ten 65mm wheel bolts (stock is 45mm) ~ $5/ea
#477.501.701 (2) two 21mm wheel spacer (came stock on rear of '82-85 944NA) ~$15/ea
REAR WHEEL
#901.331.671.01 (10) ten 72mm wheel bolts (stock is 45mm) ~ $5/ea
#930.331.611.04 (2) two 28mm wheel spacer (used on rear of 911-turbo) ~20/ea
After installation, YES the braking is great but car handles strange.
It seems my front wheels are now sticking out (sideways) slightly more than the rears.
Is this normal?

A clearer picture:
<--- Front --->
width
||----------------||
||
||
||
||
||---------------||
<--- Rear --->
width
I find that my Front Width is slightly (maybe 1cm) greater than or equal to Rear Width.
Anyone with similar setup? Is this normal?
