Yes they are GermanLook wheels, that is what most GL's used originally I believe before the newer style wheels came out in 17 & 18 inch sizes.
I like them alot, especially polished they look great! As far as fitment, 6's in the front should be no problem at all, niether should 7's in the rear. Go look at Porsche Killer in the Feature article section on the main page..... HERE

As far as I know, 7x15" with ET 10 or 11mm will not fit unless you use widened rear-fenders. I have used a set of an old 911RS once that fit. But I don't know the ET anymore (getting old). I'm risking getting knee-capped by Porsche originalos for using these wheels on a bug
Take care, Richie |

Sorry, I was to quick with my answer. 16"x7 will fit under the rear without mods. Especially the ones from a 944.
These have a ET of 43mm (at least I think) Cheers, Richard |

the wheels fit perfectly in my car. the rear wheels aligned with the fenders which is fine with me. i just want to change the rear tires, it's currently 205x55x16 on 16x7 alloys. tires looked like a mushroom, what other tires sizes could i use to have a bowed or square effect like the set-up in front. (195x50x16 on 16x7).

And here are numbers:
6 x 16" ET 43 P# 911 361 020 7 x 16" ET 44 P# 911 361 020 I'm wondering what car they were mounted on. I thought a 944 but the 911# says different. Maybe somebody else knows? Cheers, Richard |

Hi Sprint,
I'm at work also ! The numbers can be found at the backside of the wheels. Yes, I did notice that the numbers are the same, but I didn't realize it until I wrote them here. There are more numbers and maybe they make the difference. I'll post the other numbers later. Cheers, Richard |
