Hi Guys I have a set of solid spoke 993 turbo wheels that I am selling. A local guy with a 996 4S is interested in the wheels, but when we mocked them up they were too tight on the front. Hitting the calipers. He really likes the look of the wheels and only want to sell them to him if they will meet his needs. Does anyone know if they can be made to fit with spacers - or is the extra clearance not possible given the extra travel for the stock lug nuts? Thanks

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Solid spoke 18's form 993? I thought the offset was ok to fit a 996 4s. Regardless, if it's too close to the caliper and needs to be moved outward. You can purchase spacers. There's many sizes 5,7,12,15mm etc. Stock lug bolts are ok with 5mm but anything longer, you'd need to purchase spacer appropriate longer lug bolts.
Yes, early 993's came with solid spokes - or so I am told. Thanks, Geetee!
What is the offset and rim width are stamped near the valve stems?
Hi springgeyser Sorry for the delay, I was traveling. Here's what I found Front - 7.5 x 18 et50 Rear - 10 x 18 et65
