Porsche wheels on mk3 ?

[t111bul]

Hi guys, I think it's time for a wheel change and i'd really like to fit Porsche design 90's . Has anyone fitted them to there car and if so what adaptors did you use to get the rite offset ?

 

[t18con]

i have porsche fit bbs on mine. get alloy adapters rather than steel if you can. i machined my adapters to get perfect offset, but not everyones as fussy as me! 20mm should do but it really depends on the et number of the design 90s. i got mine on ebay.

beattie17, What size tyres did you run on your D90's ?

 

[t18con]

mine easily cleared the brembos, but i have a higher disc offset on the brembos than most. have been tempted to try the standard discs to see but never got around to it.

How wide were yours?and what offset were wheels?
You think they will fit under an 8" wide et62 before adaptor et37 with adaptor?
Cheers for answering all my questions

 

[t18con]

et62mm would need 25mm adapter to match et37mm but bear in mind a lot of people are already using a 15mm spacer on the rear of their ibizas to get correct offset. my fronts are 8 inch, my rears 9 1/2 but with reduced inner rims making them an actual 7 1/2 inch with high offset. think my ets were 50 isg but obviously ive messed with that by changing the inner rims.

 

[beattie17]

My rears are et36 before adaptors,got a pair of 20mm adaptors that am goina get machine'd to 15mm so rear et will be 21 after adaptor.Will work it all out next week when BBS's arrive just planning on getting brembos,Supose they should fit as they porsches come with brembos.

 

[t18con]

porsche have very inboard discs though compared to ibizas. just watch as the allen headed bolts in the spacers will stick out past the spacers now or if you machined the inside edge the seats might be very narrow. i took 2mm off one face and 3mm off the other.
