Default 2001 turbo wheels on my C2S

I have a set of hollow spoke turbo wheels and tires off a 2001 tt. I am going to put them on my C2S. Other than they rear wheels being an 1" wider, anybody have any problems with this combo? I believe the front offset is 52mm and rear offset is 40mm. Should be fine but ? I don't want to roll my fenders or put up with scrapes.

I have a set of those same wheels off a 2004 turbo on my 1996 C4S and have no problems whatsoever. It really helps to fill out the wheel wells in the back. Go for it.

Josh..

Do you have a pic of your car with the 996TT rims on it ?? I am curious as to what the setup looks like.
Looking to replace the twists with a different look...but want a factory rim.

No problems here and my car is a pinch lower then ROW and no lip tuck.

Here's a not so great pic.

I will try them on the car this afternoon. Thanks for the info. Of course if they don't fit I will have to sell the car and buy the turbo they go on.

I just put a set on my car also, they fit with no problem. On a side note, the early 01' 996TT wheels were not hollow spoke. I am sure you have checked the part #'s, but for those looking to buy 01'TT wheels, my advise would be to check the part numbers first.

These wheels are hollow spoke. I have owned a 2001tt (prior to the divorice).
