Default Near mint Cup 1 wheels in San Francisco area

Hey there

I bought a 928s4 but it came with 911 or 968 wheels which don't really fit well. I had the wheels re-coated professionally by PacRims (who do wheels for Tesla and Karma Fisker) They are near mint condition now, no scratches and perfectly straight and balanced.

Asking $800 OBO. Pickup is more ideal but I can ship. I'm San Francisco Bay Area.

17x7.5 ET 47mm
17x9 ET 52mm

Front 225x45 tires with 60% tread
Rear 255x40 tires with 20% tread

Those are great looking wheels but they are replicas.

If they were real they could've been for a 928, 7.5" was fitment for the front engine cars that used Cup 1's.

How to tell apart replicas from genuine Porsche cup 1s?

First clue was the "made in Italy" making. Secondly, no factory part number on them.

Also, wrong offsets. I'm pretty sure OE Cup 1's had the following offsets:

- 55mm, 7"
- 65mm, 7.5"
- 52mm, 8"
- 55mm, 9"

How much did you pay to have them redone?
