Made by ATS who Porsche also used to manufacture the 931 spiderwebs. Not as light as classical "fuchs" wheels, they are cast not forged. They appeared on 911's in the mid-70's, 6J front and 7J rear. 944's got 7J all around. This was the max width with available.....offset (ET23).

If I recall correctly, they are also fairly heavy relative to other Porsche wheels of similar dimension.
