[s-cars] Boxster vs. bigger brakes

[LL - NY]

Have not personally tried that combo. I was originally most concerned about
spoke clearance and thought I'd need spacers, but the 95 6 spoke Avus has
room aplenty in the axial direction. Hard to say whether or not the Fuch's
have the room.  As I said before, the barrel on the //S6 Avus is
frighteningly close to the caliper.  I was able to run a few winters without
problem, however if it were to be a regular thing instead of a stopgap, I
think I'd go find me some 17's for the winter.
