What do I need to do to run Porsche Cup wheels on my standard bug. Do I need to narrow the front & add spacers or what. Fronts are 17"x7", the rear will be either 17"x7", or17"x9". There's not much info. for these wheels on a standard Bug. I've look on Germanlook.com, but that is more for Super beetles.

ive got 17x7 gti wheels......jus get a disk brake set up w/5x130 (i think) and the porsche wheels will bolt up.....my rear end is lowered 1 notch i think and i have a stock length beam- its as low as it can go.....i will get a narrowed beam and take it down w/spindles
