actually, the OEm 16x8 5 spoke ET40 wheels do clear
the 993TT caliper mated to the 314x30mm EuroA8 rotor
(ECS Tuning Stage II)... but only by the NARROWEST of
margins...

i have two sets of OEM rims, one set (with balancing
tape weights) clears with about 1mm of space between
the stick on weight and the caliper...

on the other set, i had to move the tape weights
inwards to avoid rubbing...causing a less than ideal
balance... (could also mount the tape weight on the
polished lip but it would look awful...)...
