What are the offsets of these wheels? IIRC the early 911's will not fit our cars. The offset is insufficient. Look on the inside back of the wheel. The offset is cast into the wheel.

Don't know - will have to look... Something I found on Craigslist here in Vegas - My '79 the tires are REALLY dry rotted, so for the price of 4 tires for my phone dial wheels, I can pick up these tires and wheels that are practically brand new - and I don't like the wheels on my car anyway...
