D90's - need advice on fitting, please.

Hello people,
Just bought myself some Porsche D90 wheels with tyres as I've seen a few mk1's with these and liked the look.
However i'm now wondering what thickness of adaptor I will need.
Can sombody offer some advice please?
The tyres that are on are 205/55 16 at the front
                               and 225/50 16 at the rear.
I have just read other posts that suggest a 7" wheel is the widest you can fit, does this mean the rears which are 8" will not go on?

the going on a tin top or cabby mate

i have 7J on my cabby now and they are fine

i am just about to play around with some 7.5j wheels

i think it depends on offset and the size of your spacers mate

hi mate see below link

the wheels i am hoping to proper test fit all round next weekend are:

ET45 5 x 112 7.5J

WITH ADAPTERS FROM CONCEPT WHEELS 5x112 to 4x100 20mm all round.

so i believe that brings the offest from ET45 to ET25

a friend has some 195 50 16's so im gona try those tyres on it first, let u know how i get on

They are hopefully going onto a tin top, let me know how your mates wheels fit, it will be interesting to find out if they do fit.
If anyone else has any advice, it would be handy, as I don't want to splash out on adaptors to find they wont fit onto my car, cheers.
