Value of these rims
After adding Fuchs wheels to my '77 911S hotrod, I need to unload the set of 4 wheels I pulled from the car. The previous owner had these on the car for whatever reason, I think they are from a 964, not sure. Anyhow, I have no clue what $$ to ask for these rims, any idea what they may be worth? They have some road rash here and there.

I have those on my car too. They are Carrera Cup fakes. Heavy as hell, but look nice. Built to fit SC and Carrera without spacers.

You should find the ET and include those numbers when you post the for sale ad.
If those are factory wheels, spacers will be needed to mount them on 911s made before late 1989(torsion bar years).

OK, so after further inspection these seem to be Mille Miglia Cup 1's. They say "Made in Italy" on the back. They are probably replicas. Any way to know for sure?

The Made in Italy is the key. They are replicas and most likely have the offset to fit 74-89 torsion bar 911s. Look at the backs and you should see ET_ _.
They should sell quickly. I don't want to give a value but suggest you see what other sets are selling at.

Rule of thumb is
- genuine wheels have offsets stamped on the outside, either side of valve stems. - no stamps = replicas Rule works on cup1,2,3, turbo twists etc. can tell factory items a mile away, without removing the wheel.

Usually the replicas sell for around $1,000 for a set.
