Tires are brand new and have 200 miles on them all wheels were properly balanced and are 100% straight
They come is VERY RARE bbs porsche center caps that have actual bbs part numbers on them (i have never seen these before)

I can get the et's but they fit a 86 951 perfect without spacers and have zero rubbing with the car at a very low ride height

Very nice. I just did a clean-up & reseal of some 8 & 9 x 16 BBS RS's. Love them. Best of luck with the sale!

....and one may say that you got a great deal, if anyone out there would pay $1300 for the wheels shown here, although these have tires.

Those are nice wheels but just don't look right on that car. Maybe it is because they are silver wheels on a gold car .. Would look great on a much darker car IMO. Don't think the offsets are right for a 911 if they are sitting on a 944 tho.

Ed, I agree I feel I got a deal, which is one reason why I was happy to wait over a year for the set - I thank you once again for that.

By the time I was all done with wheels, shipping, tires, new bolts, shipping on the new bolts, the adhesive sealant, mounting & balancing, I am in just over $1800 I think on the set of 4 BBS Wheels. FYI only for anyone looking at going that route.

Sorry for the hijack! GLWTS!

They are great wheels - light strong - and provide a little more cooling for the brakes

Up to 1986 the 944 offsets are compatible with the 911, so these should be fine.

I agree on posting the ET numbers though, they should be under the center caps?

Would they be considered " early offset " wheels ?

Yes, early offset.

I'd be willing to bet these are et23 in the front and et11 in the rear, just like 7 and 8" 911 fuchs.

I have those BBS in 7/9x16 on my SC ...love them! Though mine are in "track" condition and the standard BBS centercaps ...yours are simply stunning, and good price to boot. Someone's getting some real beauties!

If you can confirm The offsets of 23 front and 11 rear, I'll take them for $1,300.
