I can't find results searching for VTO or +VTO, is it because it's a three letter search term? Anyway I'm curious about these, 5x130 pattern, 911 offsets, 15 and 16 inch wheels in 7 and 8 inch widths:

I can't say much about the weights of the wheels, but here's the scoop on the wheels/tires combo.
They're actually 15x7 on all 4 corners, they just used my car on their 16" page. The tires are 205-50-15 on the front and 225-50-15 on the rear, with a 1/4 inch spacer on the rear. My rear fenders are pulled, so I can't directly speak for the fitment on a narrow rear fender. The only nuance I found was the issue of the wheels not being hubcentric to a 5 bolt hub.. It's VERY close, but not quite perfect. I ended up having to buy hubcentric adapter rings that were probably $20 for a set of 4. The measurements are 73.1-71.6mm adapters. Most custom wheel and tire shops will sell them. I think they are low pressure cast wheels, like both SuperLite and Minilite brand wheels, and the backside of the wheels look identical to that of a true vintage minilite |
