The answer you got on DDK is accurate. "Rare" is a relative term. Rare does not necessarily bestow financial value.I am assuming you are enquiring about 15 × 6? Compared to a deep six without hearts they are not rare. The without hearts deep six is not rare compared to a deep 7R. Early Porsche were made in small numbers relative to today's Porsche volumes so wheel volumes are correspondingly small. So compared to modern Porsche wheels your wheels are rare. A date matched set of deep sixes without hearts are a desirable thing to have on a nice date matching car. Could you go out and get a set of deep sixes with hearts easily? Probably not. They do come up for sale from time to time though.
Well said. Here's a data point for value comparison:
