Okay, what about 16x7" Porsche Fuchs wheels on an IRS platform? I really want a set for my 69 Notch, and am considering changing over to Porsche-drilled brakes (or Porsche brakes if possible) to accommodate them. Maybe 7 would put too much rubber on the ground and I should just look for 6's? Any advice or lessons learned?

I think the axles off like an oval window are the shortest ones. you need some of those to fit 7" wide wheels on the back. kAz in teXas ------------------------------------------------------------------- Pitch in!
