Default any clue what brand these cup 1 replicas are?

Well these are on my car and I dunno who makes em, I know they aren't factory because they don't have the offset or size(w/e) info right next to the valve stems.


Also I have konis on front and rear, my front right strut is blown and I'm not sure if they are m030 or m474 or if they are either if they have a hack rebuild done to em. What would be the difference in what I order to accomplish bringing em back to snuff.
Btw I have searched slot and am still confused Which is why I posted. Thnx again.

-Chris Lovin.

As far as I know all the replicas are made by Mille Migali.

Yep looks the same. Discontinued though. Got ahold of em at tirerack and ordered a replacement formmy rear bent one.... Unbelievably cheap. So cheap I don't care about the durability issues with em.

here's the info from the porsche factory parts catalog:

951 343 032 02 shock absorber -koni- /R 87- M 030

so it looks like it's an M 030. there are also part numbers for left side M 030 is 951 343 031 02 and M 474 konis are 951 343 031 06 and 951 343 032 06.

just curious, but what did tirerack want for the cup wheels? and i would love to know what they weigh when you get it? (they are rumored to be heavy compared to the porsche cups.)

94 dollars for 2 wheels including shipping. I dunno If they have full sets of them anymore. I just needed 1 rear but got 2 because the price rocked. I dunno about weight. I think it's stamped 620 kg on the rim next to the logo they also say made in Italy on the inside of the wheel.

Ooh m030? Goody! I've been reading lots of conflicting posts on this and was confused. How should I go about fixing my blown strut?/ both front struts?

Are you certain they are m030? I have only found posts saying m030's last number is 32 not 02? Can anyone confirm these parts or me? Pretty prease.

Snap a picture of the strut, and also the top mount (remove the little black nipple thing if there is one).
