Hey Guys, my ocd has kicked up as I was detailing my beautiful car when I realized I don't have a correct spare wheel in the frunk! Of course I'll never use it, but can someone tell me the correct part # for this?
Budge, I'm not sure what spare rim your showing,... but the backside of mine doesn't look like that
Strange that the part numbers on mine look like 965.362.130.00 (as compared to the part #'s posted in das76' thread above, which shows xxx.xxx.030.xx)
Yet the PET shows it as a .030
.....
the casting on my rim make it seem as though the factory had some smudge inside the casting cavity for the 7th digit (which looks like a number one) ...

Reason: PET shows .030
I'm more inclined to think that the PET is a printing error in this case. It's fairly clear that the rims above all say 130, but with slight casting variations on the 1.
Or.... was the part originally 130, like it clearly is on my 3.3, but was renumbered to 030 in later production (i.e for the 93/94 3.6, and then that part supplanting the earlier number) and accompanied by a slight change to the dies used to cast the wheel?

Steve this spare rim is the one with the round holes not oblong , it is the same as was in my '94 turbo and '96 twin turbo , I acquired this for my 3.3 since it didn't have a spare in it or if it did I removed it don't recall actually .
I believe the number to be 965 362 130 , thanks Bert
Mine all look like Bert's both 15" and 16". AFAIK the only difference between the 928 and 964 part number was dia. The 928 part was a 15" dia and the 965 a 16" to fit over the big brakes. My 928GTS has the big brakes and came with a 965 part numbered spare. They crammed it into the same space as the 15" but as you can see it has made a square out of it after all these years. My 93 C2 also has the 16" spare but my 90 came with the 15". I suspect they had multiple suppliers for these. I also have found a number of parts that come up correct on the PET and Porsche inventory system but are incorrect on the part. Another are the wheel hubs. IIRC they all have raised cast part with a 605 yet the part number comes up in the system as 650.
I took these yesterday. This is from my 93 928GTS but the identical part as my 93 C2/965 spares. Made by SM and machined vs cast. It also has the .01 suffix. Interesting since the PET calls out suffix .00 for the turbo. These are all original to my cars.
16" SM from my 93 928GTS same as my 965 and C2 spare I have seen 16's with cast centers as well but this is the cast 15" from my 90 C4. Also made by SM but cast and I can't read the part number.
