We used a set of Project Kics spacers that were modifed to fit the porsche. They come with thier own studs built into the spacer. It effectively changed the car to 5x114. Then the wheels were ordered to fit the car offset wise.

 

well i knew that... sorry

DD... I don't have mine molded in because it it to be a clone of the RSR

 

hehehe I was just letting other know

 

to each his own. people like what they like. the fenders just look kind of "tacked" on to me. but as you know, opinions are like.... well you know the rest

 

i think you had the best widebody conversion i've seen on here. post some some pics of it. that car was fantastic.

 

i think i'll use that $10k towards the downpayment on a 997 turbo instead

 

holy crap-***** that is something else!!! That's going to win a lot of shows. Well done indeed

 

Are there any safety concerns with this? I only ask because I am in the market for wheels myself, and happen to love one-piece wheels more than 2 or 3-piece wheels. I find myself in the minority in disliking most of the wheels that exist for 5x130, (I'm not a fan of polished lips)...but like much more the 1-piece monobloc looks of race cars.

Changing to a 5x114 would open up a whole world of options, but I have not seen this done on a Porsche before, so first and foremost I am concerned about strength.

Thanks!

 

Sick looking.

 

They are very stong and very well put together.

I know a few people who have run time attacks on them before with no issues. Its really a slick setup they way they attach and all.

Unfortunately they dont make a set to fit our lug pattern. So I had to buy a set, and then have the spacer section remade out of stainless steel. They guy made the spacer, drilled the holes, put a hubcentric ring in and then tranferred the stud setup from the project kics spacer to his he built. He said it was a pain in the *** and he would have to charge a bunch to do it again.

 

Wow, beautiful, georgeous, mean!!!!!

 

I read everyones comments and got to say, great replies to everyone. You build it "YOUR-WAY" and if you're happy with it then GREAT!!!!

I understand since I too had mine in the shop for a re-paint and kit that it usually needs to go back a couple of times before it's all done right.

DUDE, IT LOOKS AMAZING!

Everyone, give it up to the guy, he put some months and money down... Let's keep it pos+
