|
|
So last year I parted out a 1986 944 N/A and it had the 15x7 phone dials on them. What I would like to do on my 924S, is run 225/50/15 on the rears with the 15x7 and 205/55/15 on the front with the 924S's stock 15x6.
My main question, is will that early offset phone dial fit the late offset that the 924S uses? Or will I have to get myself some 15x7 phone dials from an 87+ 944? _________________ Guards Red 1987 Porsche 924S (Automatic)

We have seen early offset wheels (Khal - cookie cutters, Smoothie - Fuchs) on 924s.
However, the least amount of hassle would be to find the 15x7 from a late 944. _________________ Toofah King Bad

Check offsets, 924S is 52.3, 944 is 23 IIRC and may not go. _________________ 1984 n/a Ruby Red Metallic

Yeah that's correct. 87+ 944/924S has 52.3mm offset while the early 944 to 86 has 23.3mm offset.
I'm willing to trade my early offset 944 (I only have 3) phone dials or trade plus money on top for some late model PD if you, or anyone you know, wants them. _________________ Guards Red 1987 Porsche 924S (Automatic)
