How do I tell if wheels are replicas or real?
 
I am looking at a set of 993 Cup II wheels, how do I tell if they are genuine or not?

What are they worth in good but not great condition?


What size spacers will I need for an 87 Carrera? Anyone got some for sale?

On the back are serial #s.....

I would say $700-900 in good condition, less if there is curb rash. There is a porsche part number cast in them on the back side. There are different offsets of this style of wheel and the offset of the wheel will determine what spacers you need.

Damnit, I didnt check back in time and picked up the set, and they must be replicas because they dont have a serial number. Paid $450 with good snow tires that I will have to sell, guess I got ripped off.

They are ET 47 and 52, what size spacers should I get for an 87 Carrera?

Is it okay to run 255/45 tires on all 4?

Made in Italy is also a dead give away :)
