Changing Porka rims
Posted: 03 Oct 2018, 13:28
Hi Folks.
I currently have a set of 17" Cayenne Alloys ( I can't recall the tyre sizes) on my van, and I am literally a gnats chuff away from being able to get the van in my garage.
I currently have -50mm springs on there and the van rides lovely, but I do need an extra inch (maybe more if I can get it) of clearance.
Rather than the expense changing the up/over door to a pair of side openers, or lowering further with the use of -70mm springs my thoughts have turned to changing the wheels.
I can't run to the expense of air or juice, as the money I had from the sale of my Early Bay bought this van, and the rest was swallowed up by the wife to pay towards our loft conversion.
I have found some Porka rims that are 16" in dia and running 195/45 16's on there.
The front two are 7J and have an ET of 65
The rear two are 8J and have an ET of 52.3
Am I going to run in to any difficulties bolting these on?
