    Mahle Gas Burner wheels set of 5

    I have a set of 5 Mahle Gas Burner wheels. Just came off a driving car, no wobbles or vibrations so they are true. No cracks or excessive corrosion. These wheels are magnesium so the are extremely light weight but also can have serious crack or corrosion problems if they were subject to harsh conditions - not the case with this set as they were on a Southern California car for many years and have not seem much use. Last time they were refinished it looks like they were sand blasted and painted with silver spray paint, would be best to sand blast them again and paint with high quality catalyzed paint, no disgusting powdercoat to deal with. 4 center caps included. The spare tire was not holding air, when I took the tire off I realized it is slightly bent on the inside lip and needs to be straightened by a wheel specialist - a wheel refinisher told me it is not a big deal because the bend is on the inside - cost is $75 to straighten wheel.

    Picture of the wheels on the car as of last week. These wheels look great on 356 and 914-6 too. Sorry the display on my camera just broke so I am shooting pictures like I am blind.
