[s-cars] yet another rim question...

[Fred Munro]

I have seen similar posts about the OEM UrS4 wheels and 993tt brake setups,
Taka. If I recall correctly, Igor shaved his RS2 caliper mounts to centre
the calipers over the rotors - maybe this moved the calipers far enough out
that they don't clear the spokes on the OEM UrS4 wheels on his car.
Bira says the OEM UrS4 wheels will clear their 996 caliper/993tt rotor kit
but the Avus UrS6 wheels won't. Go figure.

Interesting, Igor-
One lister mentioned that the 16x8 ET40 UrS wheels will work with
993tt brakes.

I have no direct experience with these fitments as my brakes will
not clear any 16s that I've tried.

Only the 6-spoke 16x7.5 Avus will, Taka. The 16x8 5-spoke S4 are too
shallow despite being wider by 0.5".
