2001 911 "18 Twists on '86 951 ?
tire is 265 35 r18 the front is 225 40 r18.
I am guessing these twists are 8 & 10's. They are from 2001 Carrera. Will they fit an '86 951 with spacers ? I believe my offset is 23mm. I dont know the twist offset, do you?
I bought this 951 with C2-Turbo "17

If they are from 2001 18" then they should be:
18x7 1/2 front ET 50.
18x10 rear ET 65.
If the 17" you have now are:
17x7 front ET 55.
or17x7 1/2 front ET 52.
17x9 rear ET 55. then they will fit.
Hope that would help... <img src="graemlins/jumper.gif" border="0" alt="[jumper]" />

If these are "turbo twist" wheels and not true hollow-spoke Technology wheels I think you will be very sad you installed them because they are much heavier than those C2 17s, and you will definitely notice the difference in both handling and acceleration. I have pictures and part numbers on my web site in the Technik Info section.
