Period correct, aftermarket wheels for early 928
Does anyone know what would have been the typical aftermarket wheels fitted to early 928's in period/back in the day?
Would 16" have been the norm in say 78-80?
BBS's? Gotti's?

There's a work-in-progress project going on now that's building 18" versions of the original Phone Dial wheels fitted to the early cars. Keeps the original distinctive 'look' of the phone dial wheel but updated to allow modern tire fitment. Original tire fitment was a 225 section, something a bit narower than what comes on new Honda Civics. The period BBS option wheels were no wider than the originals IIRC.

A Super Top Secret (For your *** only) Project I'm guessing. (-%
