Default Bronze 16" wheels

Does anyone know of a manufacture that has made 16" wheels in bronze for mid 80s 911s? I found the guys at NS Wheels have a nice one in 16" but don't offer the correct PCD. I have an email into them but looking to see if there are other options.

Maybe check Group 4 Wheels. https://www.group4wheels.com/store/1...olos-c63263015 They make a nice looking Campy wheel in bronze. Agree with Ice, the Fuchs are timeless.

Our son is Marketing Mgr for WHEELPROS(Motegi, American Racing,Asanti,Niche,Rotiform and off road wheels) and when he drove our 911 to design offices they said they "would kick his butt if he switched out the Fuchs"

I agree that the Group4Wheels are the way to go for a bronze wheel on a classic 911. I have no issue with a classic Fuchs. If you want to change wheels I suggest you keep your Fuchs if they are actually Porsche part numbered.
They are valuable if original. I changed wheels on mine and sold the non-original reproductions installed by a previous owner. It's your car do what you want.
