Has anyone seen these wheels before?

Just got a "new" '91 928 to replace my '85 911 that was hit by uninsured, drunk driver. I me not as familiar with the 928 but I wonder if these wheels are aftermarket or factory. I don't think I have seen this style before. Any information is appreciated.

Congratulations, on the new ride. Very nice!

Sorry to hear about your 911...that stinks.

Brian.

Thank you for the replies. That helps. Today was day 1 and learning what/where all of the controls are. I have not had the chance to the wheels off yet to look for the numbers, so your post is helpful.

I know Russ here had those on his and I believe his were 19's. I always thought they were aftermarket as I never seen them on any other 928 until yours.

If OEM, the widths and offsets should be next to the valve stem. On the front it should be something like 8 58 meaning 8" width and 58 offset.

Here, found a thread with his wheels. Apparently they are Carrera S Wheels.

Must be rare, I've never seen them before now.
Definitely a worst nightmare for someone with trypophobia!
