What happened to the wheels on the 928 in your avatar? Or is that not your 928?

Poking around while out of town and found these for sale.
I was on vacation with this slow internet speed trying to research and pad kept crashing so I reached out to you guys for help.
This seemed like a great deal but your correct tires are too narrow.
I swapped wheels My "avatar wheels" I put on my 86 S/C and the Bbs style wheels made the Blue 85 look like crap. So when I saw the wheels up for sale I wanted to jump on it.
Still in the market for some wheels for my 85 euro "Avatar" which I will be putting up for sale soon along with my 88 924.
