If you are looking to widen up your wheels on a 930, you can run a little trick to get 8" Fuchs on the front. Some Porsche enthusiasts know that the 951 (944) rear 8" x 16" fuchs alloy wheels fit really nice on front of 930 or Widebody cars 911 Turbo, 911 TL or 1989 Speedsters. They look like a 7' x 16' but but switching these wheels up, you get the extra 2" of Rubber upfront. These wheels are a 951 part # not a 911 Part #, so this is a nice little trick.

I have put a pair of 951 16x8 on te front of my 911. The offset is bigger than a 911 fuch and allows bigger brake calipers.
