Title: Re: 996 wheel using 999 forks Post by: Turf on November 19, 2010, 04:04:25 AM Don't have a rim or rotors yet, trying to figure out path of least resistance.
done a 996 swinger so 999 front would look odd Aren't 996 fronts 6 bolt and 999 are 5 i believe Title: Re: 996 wheel using 999 forks Post by: ducpainter on November 19, 2010, 04:10:41 AM Don't have a rim or rotors yet, trying to figure out path of least resistance. Yes they have different mounting.done a 996 swinger so 999 front would look odd Aren't 996 fronts 6 bolt and 999 are 5 i believe But the offset of the rotors is also different. It won't be a simple conversion and it will be tough to decide without pieces to measure from.

I like the three spokers though.
