Default Option Codes M348 and M395

I recently found a car for sale close to me that has these two option codes which are Grand Prix White Forged Wheels and 16" Forged Wheels. Well the car does indeed have 16" Grand Prix White Fuchs wheels on it in I believe 7 and 8"
widths (tires are 205 front and 225 rear). I'm trying to figure out if these wheels are worth purchasing the car or not as I can get the car for a reasonable amount compared to what 16" fuchs go for. However, I know fuchs wheels are hard to determine which are which...so can anyone provide more insight? I cant read the item numbers on the backs of the wheels. I just know they're 16" Grand Prix White Fuchs. Not sure on widths. The car is an 86. Any ideas on what the part numbers are and a worth?

Thanks!

I would take a tape measure and see how wide they are. The 8's are worth a decent amount from what I have heard is $1200. The 7's are a dime a dozen so they aren't worth as much. I would pursue it.

If its a 951 then I think you would be safe to assume they are the valuable wheels. If it is an NA it is a different story and I can't help you.

Car is an N/A, and looking at the other option codes, it appears as if Porsche put 225 size tires on 7" wide wheels, so I'm thinking these are 16 x 6/7 Fuchs. I can get the car for $1200, and it is complete(except the interior is trashed). Trying to decide whether or not to buy it and part it...
