Thanks.

I'm trying to find out if those are the stock size rims or something that one of the previous owners had installed. Rear ones seem wide.

Thank you.

You don't say what year your car is but it appears to be an '84 thru '89 Carrera 3.2
if so
stock wheels were pressure case 5 holes 6 & 7 x15 w/ 185/70 or 195/65 tires, these were not Fuchs.
options were
Fuchs 7 & 8 x15 w/ 185/70 & 215/60 tires
or
Fuchs 6 & 7 x16 w/ 205/55 & 225/50 tires

Common after purchase up grades are
7 & 8 x16 w/ 205/55 & 225/50
7 & 9 x16 w/ 205/55 & 245/45

btw, the spoiler isn't oe for a Carrera

not sure but those fronts look like 6s

Paul do you know what you have ? if they are genuine fuch the part number size and offset should be stamped on the inside of the wheel.

My '76 C3 had 7 & 9 x16 for years too. They were and are a popular upgrade but were never oe except as noted above

theiceman

If those are genuine fuch 9s on the back they are worthless but il pay for shipping to me 😉

Lol it would be s major score. But they could use some petroleum jelly

Now that I'm looking on a bigger screen you are right on the fronts. They are flat through the silver between the petals and the lip.

I still think the rears look like 8s.

Thanks guys. I have no idea if they are genuine or not. Its in storage right now and I can't get at it to check. All I know is its 16's
