if they were of the same widths...would they have different offset which they definitely have..........two of them have more concave look

Kashmir, the manufacturer COULD be using the same width 9.5" all around but yes have different offsets, to make the "staggered" look but its kinda cheating... its like adding spacers to our wheels, which I do on my winters, to make it look like a wider stance, when in reality I have the same width wheels all around, but now a staggered offset.

Even replica's will usually indicate some type of wheel specs like width/height/offset. Again, look on the back (if you have mounted them yet) and jot down any info you see. If you can't decipher what it is...then post it up and perhaps we can help you with it...just make sure you jot down exactly whats cast into the wheel. Or take a good pic of the info and post it. :) |
Here are the markings from the spokes :
DOT ENAC A1S17 found above marking on all the rims the rim with smaller offset has this: CDW CD953 the rim with larger offset has this : CDW CD 954 All Rims say "DESIGN IN GERMANY" thanks Quote:

Example of replica style 87 wheel spec locations
Those markings don't really indicate specifics about he wheel's dimensions etc. For example, in the images below, the wheel's width, height, & offset is cast into the rear spokes & hub of this replica style 87 wheel found on eBay:
The width & height (9.5" x 20") is cast into the right spoke at the 2 o'clock position and the wheel offset (45mm) is cast into the bottom indentation at the 6 o'clock position between the lower left/right holes for the lug bolts. This was the type of "specs" I was referring as to what to look for. :) http://www.germanautorecycling.com/i...8163-26486.jpg |
First of all thanks for the effort and taking time to post. I didnt see any markings like the one you are pointing to (20x 91/2)....that would be hard to miss even for me!! I will take another look tomorrow though.
thanks again Quote:

Depending on who made them...they may not have cast the specs into the wheel...and all the info about the wheel is coded by the mfg in the numbers you previously posted...or they may be in a different location. For example, the BMW wheel's specs are on the front side around the hub. :)
