Default FS or Trade Mahle BBS 8jX15/9jX15

FS or trade newly refinished Mahle BBS Wheels (w/11 miles on them), early 80's 930 option, black lacquer centers, chrome lipped, 8jX15 +23mm Front and 9jX15 0 offset rears. They will fit on any early suspension with steel arms and no spacers in the rear. Best part is, they have new (well, 11mi) Dunlop SP 8000 225X50 ZR rated fronts and 245X50 Zr's in the back, professionally mounted and balanced. I am open to suggestions on trade but they must be a good fitment for a 1986 turbo set-up and an improvement over the cookies I have on there now. I cannot use them as I bought them before I had new suspension put on and now they don't fit (please read post https://rennlist.com/forums/924-931-944-951-968-forum/306679-will-early-hubs-replace-86-turbo-hubs.html) for more details if interested as to why. This info is posted there as well.

IMHO, they look really cool and vintage. With the 0 offset, they have a VERY fat lip. I would have polished the lips instead of chroming, but this is how they came and this is how I am offering them. I will try to get pictures up in the next day or so. Please PM me if interested. TIA

Pics of fronts, rears, rear width, rear close-up. I would like to get about 600 bucks. I am also open to trades for 16inch deep P-Dials or something cool like that. FWIW, the tires were more than that before mounting, etc. I wish I could use them. Thanks for looking.

Damn those look good.

If I were anywhere near needing rims for my track car I would ****** those up in a heartbeat.

Don't suppose you want any late offset 16" trashcans do you? I'll polish the **** out of them, clearcoat em and skin them with any rubber you want (within reason).

I have a feeling those would look mighty nice on my Carrera GTR replica.

Thanks. Only want early offset as I hate spacers. But what the hell are trash cans? I love your car BTW. Very bad ***. Aside from being an early and having a lot in common with 924, mine has a 931 hood. So, I am vibing the heritage.

They are pretty racey looking. They would look really cool on your car. I wish they fit mine. PM if you want to see them on an early offset just to show fitment. However and FYI, I am in discussions with another member about a wheel swap.

Those are nice but I am looking for something with more of a lip. Thanks though. Did you polish those?

Not mine, but that is what a nice polish looks like on them. Thought I'd tempt you with that before I showed the ones I have.

How about these for lip? Also not mine.


They are only 15"'s but 8" and 10" wide and extremely light. Made by Centerline and yes they are for the Porsche.

Brain cramp. Those are not yours. I did see a set of those on ebay about a year and a half ago and was sorry I did not bid on them. What is the rear offset btw? Do you know?

Don't know off hand, but I think I can get my hands on them. Let me know how your pending deal works out. I'm going to see if I can get some more info on them just in case.

Those would look really cool on a LT1 944 drag racer. I think I saw a 924 drag car go up in flames on Pinks/Speed Channel.
