Need help with wheels

My 86 Carrera has Euromeister 7x16 and 8x16 wheels that were purchased in 2013 along with a new set of Continental tires. Fast forward to the present, I now need tires, and ordered a set. Because I recently purchased a commercial building that used to be an auto repair business, I put the Porsche up on one of the lifts (with hockey pucks bolted to each corner) and carefully pulled the wheels off, cleaned them thoroughly, and delivered them to the tire store to have my new tires installed. BAD NEWS!! When I picked up the wheels and new tires, I found that the 7" front wheels had been badly scarred. For some reason, the 8" rear wheels came through unscathed.

I am insisting that the tire store buy me a new set of front wheels. However, I cant' find Euromeister wheels anywhere. Are they still available? When searching, I found Maxilite wheels. Does anybody have any experience or opinion about these wheels? Would they match the Euromeister wheels okay?
