Default WTB 8x16 ET 52.3 Manhole Wheels

I'd be interested in either a pair or a full set of 4. Not interested in purchasing a staggered set of 7s & 8s.

Thanks

These? I have all four with rotted tires. They are on an 84. Don’t know the offset. I could be convinced to part with them. They might need painting, they might clean right up!

They look lovely! If they are all 16x8 ET 52.3 I’d be interested!

If the tries are 245-45-16 they are most likely the correct size wheels. But I guess they could have the wrong offset as I believe 928 also came with a different ET.

I have 4 wheels (manhole) of a 1990 S4 with the sensors. I think the rears are 245/45/16 and the fronts are 225/45?/16. If interested let me know.

The 16x8 ET 52.3 were installed by the factory on 87+ and only ever on the rear. All front manhole wheels were 16x7 ET 65.

I've probably got a pair, too.
Let me take a look.
I could drop them off at 928 International and he could ship all of them...

Hey anyone got a set of these 16x8 wheels? Looking to spend $500 for a pair. No chrome but anything else is considered.

Thanks

Mike:

I do have two. They were chrome and the chrome was stripped. The surface was redone and re-anozided.
The are gorgeous!
The client had issues with then leaking air at a couple places on the beads, from the chrome eating the aluminum.
We worked on them a bit and got them to seal, but the fronts leaked, also, and the client was "over" the problem and we got him another set of wheels and had tehm redone.

You may have to do some more work on the beads, but I can keep these in your price range (which is pretty low, for these wheels, today.)
