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
Cheers
Jeremy
