All you need to do is have the drums and rotors redrilled. You already converted the pan to 4 lugs right? I thought I saw pics on your web site showing this, 4 lug drums in the rear and 4 lug disc's up front. There is a guy on the Samba type 3 forums( http://thesamba.com ) )who is already using those rims on his Notch. He didn't even need any spacers due to the offset of the rims. : ) There is also a guy in the Portland area running 19's on his Square, and John J. is running 16 x 8's on the rear of his Square, so you can do larger rims without the added expense of Porsche parts. Just something to think about.
