Early e12 vs S2 E28 wheel fitment measurements

Post by Mamod17 »

Hi,

I need to get my wheels sized up for my 1980 Shark, E12 based chassis. However it's off the road for the moment. My 1986 S2 is fully functional. My wheel retailers want to measure up my car (I am running big flares). Can anyone tell me how much different the suspension clearances are between E12 and E24 for wheel fitment?

I'm thinking of taking my S2 to get measured up for my S1 wheels - am I asking for trouble? Is there one part I should watch out for?

Cheers
