Default forged aluminum hub ID help

Hello guys, I am new here and to porsche. So please bear with me as I come off
sounding like the noob I am. Trying to learn as I go.
I got a chance to buy these hubs I found locally and need help with identifying them. I have been doing some research but it has been difficult as their is no part #s on them that I can find. Are these still available new?
The best I have come up with is they may fit 68-89 but were made up to 73.
I believe them to fit the 911. If I am not mistaken they are 5 x 130. I could be wrong on any and all of my research?
If anyone can confirm my findings or school me on these hubs I really feel I know very little and would appricate any information you veterans could share.
Posted a picture and hope that helps.
Would like to know what they will fit and what would be a fair dollar amount to offer seller without insulting him and embarrassing myself for being so uninformed. I wish I had a few years experience at this but just getting started.
They do appear to be in nice shape just dusty and aged from sitting in his shop
under the bench for over 10 years. I think they would clean up well.

Try here for prices. However yours may be earlier as they don't seem to have the slot for tightening the clamp bolt.

Interesting find. Could be 930 hubs.

I've got an extra pair of 911 hubs sitting on my bench. The distance from rotor face to wheel face is 1.875" on my mic.

I know the 930 hubs are much closer than that so that the brake rotor and caliper sit further out in the wider wheels. What that distance is, I don't know, but my money is on them being early 930 hubs.

First dibs?

....or they are just hubs off a longhood S ....

Take them to a shop with a finishing cabinet and have them cleaned by fine glass bead. It will take less then 10 minutes. You will get your money back
