Wheel Fitment Question

[piper6909]

Would wheels from a 2012 987 fit a 2002 986 base?

There are a lot of variables involved. I know that the tires are taller, should fit, but speedo will be off.

Here's info on both 986 & 987 wheels:

They "should" work, but BrantyB is correct, there are several variables involved. First and foremost is width & offset (is that two?). You'll probably need to be concerned about the rears as Porsche has keep the front values pretty similar throughout the yrs.

Here's a handy-dandy calculator to show how your new wheels fit compared to the old ones. You'll need the width and offset of both sets to do the comparison.
