I believe it is 16x6 w/205-55-16 fronts and 16x7 w/225/50-60s in the rear, Pirelli P7s on anodized Fuchs with black painted centers. I'm not absolute sure about the tire aspect ratios as they could be 50 and 45 respectively, so someone correct me if I'm wrong.

According to the book "The Original Porsche 911", the stock wheels were the "phone dial" wheels with the round holes in them, with the Fuchs and sizes that Steve W said as options. It appears that both the 15" and 16" Fuchs were available as options. The 16" tires were 55 and 50 aspect ratios.

In 84, the standard wheels were the "Telephone Dial" wheels (6Jx15 w/ 185/70 tires front and 7Jx15 w/ 215/60 rear), Fuchs were an option.The exception were the Turbos and Turbo Looks which came with the Fuchs (7Jx16 w/ 205/55VR and 8Jx16 w/ 225/50VR).
