wheels for turbo how do I tell if hollow or not
I have an extras set of wheels I am getting ready to sell. I need to know if they are the hollow spokes or solid.
part # on one wheel is 993 362 140 03
it has metal valve stems and on the back of the spokes they have two long ridges down each spoke that have the part # in them. I purchased them from a guy who had them on a C4S. Not sure if they were the factory wheels for that car or not.

That is a 10" x 18" ET40 solid spoke Turbo Look wheel. This wheel was installed on the Carrera 4S.

The hollow spoke wheels have metal valve stems BUT have smooth spoke backs. The ribbed spokes are those of the solid Turbo Look wheels.
