Looks like you need to be a member of the forum to see the ad......
Just wondering why you would need a set of 4 spares. Most of the time I think one is enough, unless you are running from the cops and run over the spikes, but then I don't think you would have enough time to change all four. Just saying.
@356GS (Greg) if you've been exposed to the P-car world lately, running 4 spare 944 wheels with regular tires mounted on them is a thing now. Some people like the look.
I'have to google it the site didn't work for me to see them.
If you link to a site we can't log into, Greg, we get an "image not found" on our end. You'd need to download the pictures, then upload them to the site as an attachment.
I'm not a member. I'd be interested in prices and pictures.
Just out of curiosity, do you still have those?
OK-- I've registered with Rennlist, etc.-- they really, really, REALLY don't want to show the wheel ad to the great unwashed.
@TRP-- please give us pictures and details.
I am not worthy to see the wheel ad.........

That might mean SOC's newest member BACOTE has placed the ad. It could be one of his large collection of Porsches, eh?!
Here we go...
A set of four 944 Turbo space saver spare lightweight 5 1/2 x 15 wheels with tires. These are very light (I read measurements between 9.5 & 10.5 lbs per wheel).. They bolt directly on 356C as wheel as early 911/912s.
All 4 are in excellent condition never having really been used. The are mounted with inexpensive Nankang tires. They actually ride and drive very well. The wheels and tires were put on a 356 for a couple of hundred miles before a decision was made to switch to another wheel.
Wheels are 5 1/2 x 15 part # 951.362.131.00 ET30
Tires are Nankang 165/80 15 about 2 years old.
$250 each. Sold as a set of 4. Shipping a reasonable $12 tire if not too far.

I will say this... Rennlist has THE MOST confusing classified section of any site I've ever seen. There are member to member classifieds, standard classifieds, old depreciated classifieds, and at least one other unclassified classified section.
These wheels are in the 'member to member' classifieds. I am more than happy to help connect buyers to seller.
Merry Christmas!

Yes, sir.
Yeah... I was going to say that I thought Marty ran these.
Those are sweet. Price does not sound unreasonable.
Tempted to get them for “the next “ P project.

Better get them before someone lurking around here buys them
Thanks, Ted-- I really appreciate it.
No problem. Would you like me to ping the seller and get his contact info? Would you like for me to give him your info?
Please. I'll PM you my info.
Sent. Now we wait. With the Christmas holiday upon us, he/she may need a few days. Hopefully they reach out to you directly

I didn't buy them. They're a screamin' deal, but what I really want is the 965.362.130.01 16" for 964, 968, and 993. They look like this:
Alternately, the Image Billet 46 3-piece wheels are custom configured, so they could be made to an offset that would allow a wider tire. They look like this:
It's just a matter of preference, but I like the lack of a "hump" a bit better, and I feel like the available tire selection for 16"s are going to be better (or maybe I'm just rationalizing). Either way, I'm probably going to pass.
those are spare tire wheels I wonder if they can handle the weight or stress of daily driving? They well like 8 lbs per wheel. Just saying.
Marty copies those but they are custom made
If you search on that number that STAN posted there is a board post where someone is making different ones as well
The 944 turbo weighed in a little under 3000 pounds, made about 250hp and was marketed as a handling car. I'm guessing the spare rim could handle duty on a 2000 Speedster.
