Default new member questions!

new member here of a 95 C2 black metallic/grey, hello everyone. i will upload pic first thing 2m.

i had a question on wheel fitment.

the car came with some 5 spoke antera wheels, they look like they might be turbo fitment due to the wheel and 285 tire poking out a tad bit at the rear.

i just purchased turbo fitment oz racing/techart wheels tonight. will they fit the same? or will i need to make fender mods.

all stock suspension

Welcome to the site. This is the place to be for 993.

I am not an expert on wheels but I know the correct offset for a narrow body is 65. You can go down to a 55 and maybe a 52 but it depends on how low your car is sitting.

Try a search on wheels and you will find a lot of info.

Yeah, you might be in for a surprise with the new wheels. I think "typical" Turbo offsets are 45mm which do not typically fit narrow body cars. If the car is stock ride height, you might get by, but I think most on this board would not advise it!
