I have an ad running for selling some 17 inch sport alloy wheels. There have been 180 views of the ad but no one has called me or written to me. What am I missing or what is wrong with the ad?

In your ad you have the fronts listed as 7.5's they would actually be 7's and the rears would either be 8.5's or 9's.

 

In case anyone is wondering what they look like.

According to the parts catalog the 1992 was a 7 inch wheel in front but the 93 M030 and the 1994 on were 7.5 j x 17 inch. the rears are 9 inch. My 968 is a 1995 M030   So the wheel size is correct. Thanks for putting up the picture as the two responses asked me if I had a picture of my car with the wheels. This will save me a lot of time trying to send them a photo.

Those wheels are not original to the 968. They first appeared on the 993 then the 996 and Boxster, so they are in 911 fitment, which is ok. Here are the specs on those, http://www.wheelenhancement.com/index.php?t=WheelDetail&id=48

tried to go to that link and got a chart with no information on it and the photograph shows a different wheel than the ones I have for sale or the ones you have on your 968 in the photo of the cab.

Guess the direct link doesn't work, you can see them here. But basically those wheels aren't original to the 968, which is why they are the 911 fitment.
