Friday i got my 951 brakes from member "sdstimson" that i would like to thank ,real great guy to deal with, all parts are perfect and i got them in a mind blowing 2 days ,from USA to Italy in 2 freakin' days.
Bergamo is quite close to Rome... It's funny when person located in Italy buys italian made stuff from USA
I just test fitted a 951S front caliber under E30 BMW's 15" BBS wheels. Fit like a glove. I wanted to use 951 S front caliper with 16" new ET Phonies, let's see how they fit, or do i had to make some modifications

Theres a myth? I was rocking early offset phonies on a 1991 944T Cabriolet all the time. In fact my car got wrecked with one on the front (not the cause of the wreck). I put more phone dials on it from an 86 N/a and drove it home after all of the tires got ripped off.

I think they were used on very early turbo prototypes.I recal seeing a picture of a 84-85 turbo racecar with these wheels.
Maybe after that they put them on the 85-86 944's without changing the moulds.

So guys, just for a confirmation here: Will the standard early ET (ET23) 15" phonedials fit on a late offset car (ET56) with 944 turbo brakes? As i'm ready to fit my new brakes and i still want to drive the trackdays on "cheap" tyres..!

But i as i'm still driving the N/A brakes they'll fit the brakes easily. So this is actually very good news.. Saves me a lot of money!
