Salad shooters corvette wheels on 940?
So my friend bought me a set of rims R16 8.5j and 9.5j, rear offset is +32mm. There is a lot of different information about tire size and spacers. What can you recommend?
25mm spacers will be enough? Full stock suspension

Are you asking about the spacers to use or whether a 9 inch rim can even fit in the rears.
The biggest size factory rim is a 7.5x17 ET18 running 225s, so if you are doing a 9 inch, you would be adding 3/4 of an inch to the inside and to the outside. If you look at the wheels you have you (probably a 6x15 ET 25) you can eye ball for available clearance. Note ET's are measured in mm so ET 25 means the rim's center line is 1 inch inboard from the face of the hub.
My guess is 9 inches is really pretty wide and wouldn't fit without some modifications to the fender lip.
My vote would be to pass on this offer as well.
