The wheels were first on my 2005 MINI in gray, then were powder coated white and run on the Miata. Currently they have around 1,500 miles since they were refinished, and are in very good-excellent condition. A few very small blemishes in the finish of the powder coat and a tiny bit of camber wear on the tires are the only things keeping these from being in like new condition. Someone more patient than I am may be able to clean up the small marks left by the tire machine when the Falken tires were mounted, and at that point the wheels will be pretty much perfect. I'm probably over stating the flaws, just trying to be completely honest about the condition. I also hand painted the Porsche logos, which look very good and have held up well. The crest is red/black and polished. The 205/40-16 Falken Azenis 615K tires still have lots of tread left, with only 1,500 miles but a low tread wear rating I'd say they're at around 75%. The adapters pictured are for a Miata fitment, but I do have another set of adapters that I used on my MINI and would also work on a VW. Miata adapters are by Adaptec, are two piece, and run 48mm up front, 44mm out back to achieve et4.2 up front and et8.2 out back. The MINI adapters are actually 57.1mm hub bore, so technically VW fit, but I never had any issues. They achieve a final offset of et27.2 up front and et19.2 out back. I do not know who made them, but consider them a little lower quality, though still safe enough that I used them. One lug nut for the Porsche wheels is missing, and one hole on a front adapter is cross threaded. This is how I received them, and I never got around to fixing it before swapping wheels.
