wheel question
getting ready to clean up a pair of 15 x 8 fuchs I've been saving for my race car
the date stamp is: 1176 are these from a Carrera 2.7 most likely? most of the 8's I've had in the past were 944 wheels with date stamps in the 80's so I was just curious don't intend to sell them thanks for the info I need to measure the center caps and haven't done it yet brant

Could they be from a 930? That sounds correct for the rear wheels back in the day.

they are stamped as 8J x15
I found the part number on this list: (last part number for 8's) 7x15 12 23.3 112 911.361.020.41 7x15 12 49 (911R) 138 901.361.012.05; allows larger tire on narrow body 911s 8x15 14 10.6 112 911.361.020.42 / 911.361.020.12 9x15 ? 3.0 117 911.361.020.03 / 911.361.020.06, still... as a 76 build year... I'm curious I will need to measure the center cap opening does anyone know what year they went to the ring style center caps? tia brant
