Re: help with porsche wheel
Uuhhhh..... I'm gonna go on a limb and say "Porsche" 
Kiddin.
Check the inside of the wheel for a stamp with the diameter, width and lip markings.
EG: 18x8J 18" wheel, 8" diameter, "J" lip, or roughly something along those lines.
Right around that mark should be a stamp from the manufacturer. I know the old wheels were made by Fuchs and had a fox head stamp IIRC, and some others by BBS. Those I have no idea, but look somewhat RUF-esque if I didn't know any better... which I don't.
