Wheel role call!
 

I just wanted to check how many of you end up with WAY too many wheels hanging around the house?

Right now Porsche I have:
6 - 6x16 ET53 Dish wheels from 924 Turbo
2 - 7x16 ET53 Phone Dials
5 - 7x15 ET53 Phone Dials
5 - 7x16 ET? Dish wheels from a 928
1 - 6x16 ET53 Design 90 from a C2

Misc:
1 - 8x15 old Chevy Mangels AL wheel. Retro cool but worthless
4 - 6x15 ET45 VW Eurovan Stealies
25ish - Chevy stock stealies from various trucks and cars (mostly for farm wagons - long story)
5 - Ford Model A wire mesh wheels - so cool (but useless to me)

Most of these are stored in barns so no clutter in the house kind of deal. But still sick.

I have a few too:

2-15x4 VW steelies/tires
2-15x4.5 VW steelies/tires
2-15x7 Fuch repo's -->sold
2-15x8 Fuch repo's/tires -->sold
4-15x5 Audi(old) BBS's

Depending on season could have either the winter/summer tires/rims for the families cars. So since it's summer the winters are sitting:

4-15x5 Volvo steels/tires
4-16x7 Audi alloys/tires
4-15x5 VW steels/tires
4-14x5 VW steels/tires

Built a small extension on the back of the garage for this stuff.

i didn't think i had anyhting to add, but when i thought about it, i have a few sets too!
4 - 15x5.5 empi 8 spoke - Completely black
2 - 14x5.5 minilite in 4x130mm
2 - 14x7 minilite in 4x130
2 - 17x7 porsche cup II
2 - 17x9 porsche cup II

forgot one!, thanks mikey for reminding me.
1 - 944 verdstein? aluminum spacesaver spare (N.O.S.)

WOW guys. I only have 2 extra wheels:
1 - 19x10 Turbo twist, can't remember the offset.
1 - 944 steel calapsable spare

I have five stock steel wheels with virtually brand new tires on each from my '71 Super prior to conversion.

I have a junk yard 15-inch steel from a Golf IV (5x100) or similar. It has a stock spare tire on it which does not fit into the wheel well of my Super. I currently drive about with a doughnut spare although I may consider going back to a full spare once I have the battery move sorted out.

Keeping those company are two 205/55-16 tires that were taken off my front wheels after the conversion. They were replaced by 195/50-16 tires to avoid fender fouling.

It isn't much but being garage-less, they sure take up an inordinate amount of space in the shed. I wouldn't mind finding someone who could use the stock stuff.

Oasis - what is the story on the 205/55/16s? I need a set for my fronts. :) Are you headed to the Bug Out in Manassas over Memorial weekend?

I am happy to see I am not the only one with way too many wheels! :D

2 17x9 et 55mm Porsche cup 2's (willing to trade for 2 17x7 et 55)

Got rid of some!
 

5- 5.5 X 15 fuchs, early
2- 6X15 fuchs, early
4- 16" boxster
2- 7X15 cookies
3- 15X6 cookies
4- 15 X 6 wolfrace slot mags? (porsche pattern)

It's a disease!

I must not be trying...

1 19x8 and 2 19x10 twists (none usable, why do I keep them?)
4 wide five steelies with porsche adapters bolted on
4 new beetle turbo wheels
4 audi tt 17x7 five spokes
4 steelies for chevy astro or big chevy car


Jeff-

4-4x100 Golf/Jetta "teardrop" wheels with all seasons
5-Porsche Cup IIs- 2 bent beyond repair but good mock-up wheels
4-wide five steelies with bug 5->4 lug adapters(didn't work with disc brakes)
4-BMW M5 lookalikes slightly bent up here and there but a couple I use for track tires
4-EMPI 8 spokes
4-225/45/17 Azenis tires-used one track day but plenty of free rubber left to burn
2-4x100 16" Konig Villians, need to be switched on to my ex's car.

There are a few more, but it looks like maybe I should get rid of some?

Jason

2-6Jx16 Porsche Fuchs
2-7Jx16 Porsche Fuchs

Only five (5). I feel so inferior... :o

4 15x4.5 stock steelies
2 15x5.5 chromies (1 too bent to balance, one spare)

my brothers:
4 16x7? 01 silverado alloys, drilled to fit a mighty max w/205/40-16 tires (hopefully he'll get them sold soon, so they'll go away)

and a random donut spare from a 97 civic

This is a great thread !

4 - 15x4.5 stock beetle 4 lug rims .. not sure why I still have these :confused:

4 - 15x5.5 beetle 4 lug centreline style rims with tires (For Sale .. been trying to get rid of them for 2 years ! :D )

The tires are virtually new as I recall. I would sell them quite reasonably as it may be a month of Sundays before I would need them as replacements.

I have always wanted to go to one of the BugOuts but something queer always seems to get in the way. I am planning to go yet again.

If you needed them sooner than that we could rendezvous at some halfway point as we are just 1 hr. 37 min. (87 mi.) from each other ... or I could bring them to the show.

Happier than my wife I would guess. :rolleyes:

Scott, you have a PM.
