Test fit M Technica Turbos

[paperclip]

Anyone in the Bay Area mind letting me test fit their Turbos?
My rear fenders are pulled a good amount, just want to see how8.5's would look.
Or someone with the same specs? 16x8.5 et15

rears don't even need a pull with those specs. just a roll

I have 16x9 offset 18. If you want to try that but that's not what you're looking for.

As Porsche celebrates 50 years of its iconic 911, it’s only fitting that the fastest and most advanced models of the line-up should get a makeover. The next-gen 911 Turbo and Turbo S have received several technical revisions to enhance handling and make the fast even faster, with the S model leaping from 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds. This hi-tech generation is similar to its ancestors in name only.

Lol I mean I guess its relevant.

just put them on last week, they fit flush in the rear with just a role. the front pokes by a few mm with only a role. if you have pulled your fenders a lot id sugest maybe a spacer.

Yeah my friend let me test fit his.
This is with 10mm spacers and 205/50 tires
Probably need maybe another 5-10mm spacer and lower a little more..

looks good, personally id go with a 15mm (hubcentric spacer ftw) and drop the side wall percentage down on the tire so you can drop it more. But its your car, and it looks good as is

Yeah I'm still debating on going 45 or 50 series tires.
But the meaty look is pretty cool

i went 45, people still tell me its too much but screw em.

215/45/16 is a good tire on e30 too.

195/50 would be nice tho - can go a lil lower in front and front valence won't be lower than it is now w ur 205/40's.

Or like in this pic - you can tell you could drop a bit still without rubbing.

my gawd are those ugly. brb poking my eyes out with a sharp stick.


there is no such thing as series 45/50 for tires. this sidewall number is a ratio. 195/50 is the same sidewall height as 215/45 and 245/40

use this. stock size is 195/65-14 = 24" tall tire.
