I just sold mine ( concours) with less than 5,000 miles on them for 1K. I was told by multiple sources to ask $1500.00, but was feeling generous and wanted them out of the garage.

Good thread on Club Sports. Two years ago, I nabbed the set shown in my avatar for $600 with serviceable street BF Goodrich tires at the Hershey Swap Meet. Probably got a bit of a deal, as the dudeman was starting to comptemplate re-loading his cube truck at the end of the day when we made the transaction. Original finish, round and true, minor curb rash on the very outside lip, which I was able to work out with a small fine tooth woodworking file. Retired the OE set to sitting in the garage most of the time, mounted with R compounds.
Great lighweight forged construction, preferrable in some ways to +1 or +2 sizes. Maybe imagination, but some say the 16's preserve a little more torque and don't bump steer as badly. Many racers use the Club Sports for rain tires.
As for the 7 vs. 7.5 Club Sport fronts, there's little difference as they are the same offsets...with the narrower version coming from the 951S and the other, IIRC, from the 928 S4. Wider front tires will fit a little more easily on the wider version wheel. Have recently seen a couple of nicely turned out racers with 9" Club Sports all around, don't know what is involved in creating inside clearance for same.

I was running 9" clubsports up front with 245's with no clearance problems.
Using the same size front and rear helps with low speed understeer. (Autox)
From the info I have gathered there were no 7.5" Clubsports. The 928 S4
had as an option 8" clubsports for the front. They are rare. I looked for awhile
but never came across a set.

Mine are anodized and are the forged cup wheels. I think I may put them on the market for $1300 and see who bites. These are under appreciated and make great trake/DE wheels, as they are light and forged.

What about CCW 17X9.5F and 17X10.5R wheels, what are they worth?
