8" Fuch Concern?, Different P/N's
 
I have two different part number Fuch on the back of my '89.
one has p/n 911 362 117, & 8Jx16 ET 10.6 stamped on it.

The other has p/n 911 361 020 with a stamped "45"at the end & 8Jx16, no extra "ET 10.6" like the other.

They both have the fox head but look slightly different from each other.
Should I be concerned, or is it no big deal since they are both 8's?

Are they from different years or maybe just different lots.

Thanks.

the wheels are from different years
.020.45 is from '84 or earlier, .117.00 is the '85 or newer version. They are both 8x16 ET10.6 forged alloys w/ black centers and polished lips and are an axle match

I had a pair like that not too long ago. Weight, offset, width - everything was the same. There is just a slight difference in profile - I believe that the later one has a bit more outer caliper clearance, as if porsche was planning a brake change on the 911. Or perhaps they were planning to use them on the late offset 944's before going another route.

Sounds like I'm O.K. then. Thanks!
Edit: Is it conceivable that the two different wheels were original to the car?

Now, how to get one of them repaired? It is out of round.
I'm located in the DFW area.
