Default 7R wheels by Weidman's

I bought 4 6x15s Fuchs and sent them to Weidman's (in February!) to be converted into a pair of deep offset 7x15s (aka 7R). The wheels finally arrived today. Part of the delay was due to a mistake at the shop. The wheels were ready to go, but were mistakenly blasted to be refinished - which I hadn't requested. They found another set that turned out looking much nicer than what I had sent them. I'm sure they sold the first set for a tidy sum.

They wrapped and/or painted the outside of the weld in rubber. The weld itself looks very nice from the inside (though I'm not qualified to comment). Porsche measures width and offset relative to the inside of the rim lips, so the 5.5" backspace looks to be there.

Might get tires on'em next year
