the 35et represents 35 mm offset from the center of the wheel
so lets say your wheel is 7" wide, the center is at 3.5". if you add 35mm (about 1.5" approximately) to the 3.5" then you will have about 5" of backspacing. so that means you will have 5" of your wheel going away from your fender and 2" of wheel going towards your fender lip. if this is on a beetle you should have no problem using these wheels. I would recommend a 205/50/15 on a 7" rim, maybe 215's in the rear, but I wouldnt go any wider then that. if this is a ghia or t3 you will probably need a 7" wheel with more backspacing then 5", more like 6" of backspacing (a wheel with a 52et - 55et) I hope this helps

Will you be using stock brakes or 944 brakes? Stock items 23mm no problems. 944 brakes will widen the rear track. You will need the 52mm offset wheels then.

I will be converting front and back to 83 994 brakes, rear only hub/brake/caliper conversion (no trailing arms) front converted to 1303 with topline lowering strut (maxx too expensive).
Really, I thought only going to the turbo trailing arm increased width?????? so 944 conversion: 23 offset front, 52 rear?? |

To fit perfectly using STOCK fenders, the only conbination I've come arcoss so far is using 16" Boxster rims. They are 16' x 6" 50mm offset for the fronts and 16" x 7" 40mm offset for the rears and they fill out the fenders perfectly. I can snap a pic of my car if you are interested.
Hehe... And just a shameless plug. If you are interested in a set. I got a spare set you can have. Email me and I can walk you through the whole process. Sprint. |

15 inch audi wheels and the offset is 45 i aparently cant read. im using cb performance brakes in the front and stock drums in the rear. 45 rubs inner fender in the rear so i am getting wheel spacers.

How wide are the wheels? If they are 6", I don't think they'd rub. 7" maybe.... Coz I'm running 7" rear with offset 40mm.

195s will be a tad too skinny on 7" rims. And on 7.5" rims, it's literally stretching it!
I'd say 205 to be a good choice! |

They will fit, but it's stretching them a bit. When you coner, the contact patch will shift and the bead may seperate from the rim. Try play in your mind what happens to rim when a car takes a corner.
I don't know how to really explain it in words.... |
