Cup II wheel width question
Did the factory ever make an 8 inch cup II wheel and ship it on a 993? I thought they were all 7x9x17
I was just delivered a set of "factory 993 cup IIs" from an ebay seller. And the rears are 8" when I expected 9s. The back side of the wheel suggests they are a different manufacture than the 7 inch fronts. Do I have a pair of misrepresented wheels?

Looks like there is indeed a rear (H) 17x8 out there.
![]() The above wheel part number looks like it was a winter use wheel for Turbos and Turbo-Look/S cars? There's also another 17x8 rear wheel that was for the std. body cars ![]() Note how the offsets differ by 40mm.
