The PO had taken them off a 911 and replacing the wheels/tires.

Those are meant for old offset 911 and 944 meaning pre '86 MY IIRR. In any case they are totally useless for any 928.

IMHO, these are dead sexy. Wonder what the offsets are :

They look good and might look like that in the rear, but you'll end up with "curb feelers" in the front. Any wheel with a positive-curve spoke (outward) will have the spokes outside the wheel in 928-style offsets in front.

Be careful around curbs with these wheels. Seen many front wheel Cups w/ curb rash almost all the way up to the center cap. Amazing how some folks are such poor drivers.
