Ruf Wheel Offset Confirmation
I'm looking a set of Ruf wheels to install on a '93 Targa, the owner says the were made for a narrow body 964/993.
Sizes are:
Front 8.5x18 ET61
Rear 9.5x18 ET48.3
The car will be lowered with H&R Greens and Bilstein HD's
Also what tire sizes would be a good fit?
Thanks,
JF

Love Rufs!
8.5 seems too wide up front,
10 will work in back.
Will let those with experience chime in.

Didn't want to start another thread...
My car is a 1990 c2 manual 964...
And have come across a set of Ruf rims.. sizes and offsets
Fronts 17x8 +56mm
Fears 17x9 +44mm
Reckon they will fit?

Yep, thanks.. interesting that his are listed as 47 rear offset, but the black ones I am looking at are listed as 44 offset...
Not sure if that is an indication as to whether they are genuine or not. ??

It should be 56.7 for the 8". They have a TüV certificate and were advertised for Carrera 2 and 4. Original tires would have been in 215/50 and 235/45 or 235/45 and 255/40.

Yes they will fit fine. However, for this particular wheel, RUF also had a 17x10 that was for the 964. What you have on the rear, 17x9 ET44, was for the 944 fitment. you will be fine running them just with narrower tires than the ideal 10'' can accommodate.
