1987 Porsche 911 with 17" Fuchs Wheels from GMP Performance

Fuchs wheels are quite the classics and with 17" and 18" offerings, there's even more fitment options available for even more models. GMP Performance test fit a set of black, 17 inch Fuchs wheels on a gorgeous 1987 911 and we wanted to share it with you.

On the front, we used a 17x8.0 ET52 wheel, teamed with a 21m spacer and matched with a 225/45x17 Michelin PS2N3 tire. For the rears was a 17x9.0 ET55 with 23mm spacers and 255/30x17 Michelins. With the car being lowered, both front and rear, we think the final effect worked fantastically.

Check out the pictures of the build below and let us know what you think. To see more on the build, click here. To see more on the Fuchs wheel, click here!

Thank you! Which year and model 911? Would you want 17", 18" or 19"?

The wheels do not look square to the ground they look tilted which would have the tires riding on the inside wall more than the outside. I don't think that part is good, but the car looks awesome otherwise.

Thank you for your input. Porsches from the factory have some negative camber to begin with, which creates that look. This car is lowered and set up for improved handling, so there is a little more negative camber present on this one for looks and performance.
