Porche Cookie Cutters on Early bus

Hey Dubbers,

Would anybody know how to make original Porche cookie cutters fit on a 65 bus?

The wheels are15" 7J. ET offset is unknown, but they do touch the insides of the wheel arch on the test ftting. PCD is 5x130 i think?

Adapters seem to be the answer but i'm sure its not that simple

Advice would be appreciated or point me in the right direction.

Thx

ive got the 15x7 dials on my bus. no problems. ET is 42, and my adapter is about 30mm thick. its tight on the rear lip, but does not rub. 195 tyres
Do it! now!

If they touch the fender on trial fit, once you get the adapters the wheels will not go on, the offset for cookie cutters and teledials is not the same.

chances are if they touch the spring plate w/out the adapter during a trial fit, they will be fine.

Guys guys, make up you minds please.... you are confusing me here.

Are there any questions you need to ask before you advise me to spend R2000 on adapter plates???

Thanks!

we are saying essentially the same thing. spring plate is at the back of the wheel, fender lip at the front.
