Porsche Crest help id these wheels... please

HI I just picked up this car and am wondering if anyone may know what kind of wheels it has I took some pics of the inside of the wheel. one spoke says that they are made in Japan, another says F-206, one says jjj(maybe), one has 96 stamped inside a box and two other numbers. I just cant tell what they are. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I want to try and replace some of the lips as over the years the have been scraped pretty good. Thank you.


sorry I thought the pics were better.

I have the same wheels and posted the same question about 5years ago. No replies with good info.

The wheels are Japanese knock offs of the 1993 turbo. They are well made as far as I can tell. I weighed the back wheel when i had the rubber off. It weighed 18 lbs. It's an alloy but I don't much more than that. It's 3 piece. I had one develop an air leak around one of the bolts but got it fixed. Others in the local PCA club have them, but again they came with the car so no solid info on their manufacturer. The JWL stamp on the inside is something I also see on my Honda. It's a manufacturing standard specification for alloy wheels in Japan. Do a google image search for 1993 Porsche turbo, also do WIKI search for JWL; Japan Light Alloy Wheel standar.

Not much, but hope it helps.

The Speedlines shipped by the factory in the 90's were made in Italy... Hendog's right - they are knockoffs, but they look good!
