Hi:
LOL,...to an old-time Porsche guy like myself, your question is a little confusing.
The Mahle wheels that I know were made only in 15x5.5". These were magnesium and VERY light.
If you have a picture of what you are thinking of, that would help a great deal. FWIW, BBS makes all kinds of wheels, some cast, some forged, and some are modular 3-piece items.
Pictures speak a 1000 words,......

I have 16" BBS wheels on my 82, and 3 of them are marked Mahle. They appear to be cast.
There is a picture here: http://www.pelicanparts.com/ultimate...ML/014573.html
The Mahle is the one on the left in the photo.
