Simply a full refurb inner & outer and paint closest to the original silver..
1: Clean the wheels up.
2: Work through the sanding / wet & dry from 200 to 1500 grade. (Pictures so far are of wheel #1. At first stage of sanding 250 grade. I managed to sand out any scratches.)
3: I have two wheels that have some small rash and scratches on the face. These will require a small amount of filler and sanding.
4: I havent decided whether I will outsource the painting of do it myself. I do have Wurst Silver rattle cans.
Project will take a few months of prep, I’m in no hurry. I might even paint one wheel with the Wurst Silver. I can always sand it back if I am not happy with the outcome.
I had my D90's redone about a year ago and am very happy with the way they turned out. At the moment I like the updated "retro" look they provide. Of course - your fuchs are amazing too. I guess you can never have too many wheel choices!
Good luck and look forward to seeing the finished product.

The black centered D90’s look great!
Not long after buying my Targa I found myself with three different sets of wheels for the car. I told my wife these wheels are like your shoes, you can’t have just one set and I got the .
Odd because I never had that issue with any other car.
D90's also available in a 9'...... fitted to 944 S2 and Turbos (7.5 front and 9' rear). I picked up a set recently. Yes, the offsets are correct for a 964 and will fit (ET52 for the 9's)
The fronts are 7.5 ET65 but these should fit also.

Your black & polished / silver D90s look great. Very tempting, but I will keep the stock option to complement the Otto Fuchs.
So how do you plan on filling in the nicks and scratches? Bondo or something else?
Hey MB, wheel #1 doesn't need any filler. All the minor scratches have been sanded out. I have two of the four wheels that need a small amount of Isopon alloy filler. A useless local tyre (tire) shop burred the wheels putting on tyres. Denial of course!

Cool, thanks for the info! I did read that two of your wheels had been nicked which lead to my question, the wheel in your picture looks to be perfect.
