Is that a corrosion hole just below the hub hole? I haven't seen that before. It indicates that there was serious corrosion on the backside that penetrated through the wheel. I would not use that wheel for anything other than decoration. It must have lived most of its life in the rust belt. Are the others corroded too?

Fuchs are still some of the best wheels you can get for a 911--light, strong, good looking, etc. I wouldn't hesitate to buy a used set and drive them all over the continent. Just make sure the ones you buy aren't corroded like that.
