So I've decided to turn my 930 into a 934 replica complete with the extended fenders. Something I also want to get is the appropriate vintage BBS gold basket-weave wheels.

Similar to these...

I know they are also available in a 5 bolt version. I'm kicking myself because I saw a set of centers for sale at Hershey and didn't pick them up. Does anyone know who that vendor was?

Due to tire availability, I plan on building them as 18" to take the standard 996TT size tires. Those should be reasonable available. Though with the flares, I could probably fit Viper size too!

Peter,
Look forward to seeing you post a pic of your 934/930 when it's done.I too am in the beginning process of getting the parts together to build out '69 911 into the 934 Look. Haven't decided on an engine yet.
Just recently bought the fender extensions for my turbo flares.What do you need besides the wheels? I'll try to keep in touch with you, if I run across things.

You might try contacting BBS directly. I know they still make/service wheels for the vintage folks, so they might be able to gin up a set exactly as you'd like. Are you thinking of switching to centerlocks, or staying with 5 bolts? If the latter, also try someone like Fikse who could make you a set of custom basketweaves in almost any size, even with gold centers. Heck, even the current BBS-LM wheels look a lot like those, just paint the centers gold.

Also, check out the other thread pertaining to centerlocks on here. In that thread they list:
