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.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Bought my C4 with 19's on it. Aftermarket, heavy and I live in Pennsylvania definitely want some more sidewall. I grabbed a set of mint condition wheels that had been on a 997. They are 18X8 57 in the front and 18X10 58 for the rear. I put them on the car just to see how they would look as I couldn't drive it because the tires are too big on the 997 and I need staggered ratios as I have a C4. The front tires rubbed in my wheel wells and were very close to my struts. I should mention that my C4 has 030 suspension and H&R lowering springs. Before I order tires for these rims, reckon I am going to need spacers? Or should I just sell these rims and try to find the correct ones? Thanks! Grant

You can probably mess around and figure out how to get those rims to fit, but it'd probably be easier to just buy some that are known to fit. Rennlist marketplace often has options. Craigslist has been a good source for more local purchases. Some areas (NJ, NYC) seem to have more of a supply of used rims on their Craigslist sites, if you're willing to travel a bit.
