6 inch wide ones are 36mm offset, and 7 inch ones are the 23mm offset. This is also the same for the early Phone dials (15 inch ones) and 15 inch Fuchs

I believe that later 15 inch dials had the 50 something offset, and so did the 16s. I don't know about the Fuchs.

The slot style had huge offsets as they came off the 928 and similar- 60mm offset on the fronts! I'd recommend avoiding these.

The design 90's had lots of various offsets- all around the 50 something mm. Same with the 16 inch Boxter wheels.

I'd recommend asking for a backspace measure before commiting, or ask for the size as written on the inside of the later wheels (eg 7J16et52, 7 inch wide, 16 diameter and offset 52mm).

What brakes and guards are you planing on? This makes a big difference.

I have seen a couple of other sites with notes on wheel sizes but I'm afraid I can't find them now.

Good luck

I use this one mostly for Fuchs...I haven't found any flaws with the PN's.

'Late' offset is typically 52.3mm and 'early' is typically 23.3mm. A few mintues searchin' on Google would probably find you the answers you look for.

This should help, if I can get it to work:

Wow- thats brilliant!

Are you able to speak with one of the moderators and have a better version of that placed under the tech articles or similiar? It would be well worth having that available to point people at for these queries.

I would have made my life easier several years ago.....
