    Euromeister 8x16 on 68

    According to the sellers a set of Euromeister 8x16 Fuchs replicas will fit in the back of my 68. Does that seem plausible to you guys. I wouldn't mind running these with 225/50 in the back and a set of 7x16's up front with 205/55's

    How much flair do you guys think would be needed, my fenders already have a 69 type of flair front and rear.

    You would need a 911 Carrera RS or 911SC type flare.
    So, who is the seller?
    They are, either, bold faced liars, greedy beyond measure or blissfully ignorant. You can pick any 2 of the 3 choices.

    It's Automotion, this is what their website states. Didn't want to post their name in case it breaks any site rules here if they are not a sponsor. I really like the Euromeisters for an urban outlaw however they do not seem to make a 6x16, I would think 6x16 up front and possibly squeeze 7x16 outback would be nice. Thanks for the help guys.

    Why don't you go with 15x7 with a 34 mm offset? Those are about the largest you can fit with out adding flares.

    Or a 7x16 with 34-36 offset. There is also Braid. They will do custom offsets.

    I think it is important to know where your info come from. I guess it could be argued that they will go on a 68 (if you have wide flared fenders). Automotion is now owned by a Chevy parts specialist. I will back off my previous statement and just say that they are blissfully ignorant.
