Default What kinda wheel is this?
Where can I get these wheels from. I may pick up a set only 1 wheel maybe cracked. Anyone know if cracked wheels can be fixed as good as new.

Cracked where? If the crack is on an arm coming from the center it can't be fixed and in no way is a good idea to drive on.

Where is that car with the Borbets located? It looks like my friends car that he sold 5 years ago. Only 944 I ever saw with Borbet Type As. His were 16"s Are those 15 or 16s?
