<x-charset iso-8859-1>Mark- I am running 15x6 "cookie cutters" on my fastback and they fit like a dream...but my car is IRS and yours is swingaxle? There may be a bit more of a fit issue with that I am running 195/60/15 on all corners..and my front is lowered a bit...Soon i am switching to 175/60/15 on the front so i can drop it down more !! Also i don't know if you can stretch a 165 on a 6 inch wheel...anyone?? You should get the rotors and drums redrilled with the correct pattern, don't use the adapters. Things to note ..if you redrill everything with the Porsche pattern you will need to buy the correct studs 13mm x 13mm, i had a heck of a time finding them they were 2.00 bucks each (x5...x4=40) And you really should use the correct Porsche lugnuts...these to are not cheap....5 bucks each for the black ones...9 each for the polished ones...yep....it adds up quickly. let me know if you have any other questions on this... It is all up to you ... "Advice needed. Anyone know if 15X6 Porsche Fuch rims will fit on a lowered Notch. I would like to put 165's up front & 195's in the rear. I am upgrading my front brakes to disc from a later model square and am considering drilling out for Porsche pattern vs. VW four bolt (I like the "vintage" look). The other possibility is 4 bolt to 5 bolt wheel adapters from CIP. These are 1/2" thick according to the catalog and, if possible, I could use them with 15X5 1/2" Empi style rims. Is this a better solution? Thanks for any advice anyone has."
