Stock wheels for 1976 930
Just curious how I could tell if the wheels I have are matched with my car.
There's number on the inside, but I'm not sure what they signify. 911361020 [44] AS1062 __ 28139 I can take some pics, but just want to make sure I have the right wheels for the car before I get them refinished and new tires. Thanks in advance! |

Aren't those 16" x 7"? Then the answer is no. Original for a '76 are 15" , 7"/8" widths front and rear, with a 8/75 - 7/76 date code.

Oh ok. Thanks! Got a PM too saying that they were supposed to be 15s. Thanks for the quick replies! Guess I'll have to check for the 15s.

I have a set, albeit with later date codes, if that matters to you. They need restoration.

Maybe. I'll let you know. I think I know who's car they're on.. and I hope it was an "honest mistake", but these are spray painted black. And it looked like it was red underneath, but didn't want to do anything with them until I was sure. Thanks for the offer and help though!

You are correct, 911361020 is a 16 inch '79 930 Fuch wheel. The Porsche Catalogue lists it as a '76 15"

So, here's more info, but it's looking like these are the wrong wheels.
Car date is 04/76 2 wheels: 911361020 [44] 16 x 7 AS1062_28139a 2779 / 2879 (date codes I'm guessing) 205 55 16 Yokohama A408 tires on them 2 wheels: 911361020 [45] 16 x 8 AS1062_28139a 3479 / 3579 (date codes) 225 50 16 Yokohama A408 tires on them There's also a: "VAN KENSHAW" "129 1010" etched on each wheel. Handwritten in the wheel. I'll check the other set to see if they're a better match. |

I own two early serial # 76 930 and dates codes from original wheels go from 11/74-10/75, I would think later serial numbers cars could have date codes as late or later as 5/76. The turbo's were built in much smaller numbers so the date code spread on wheels is much wider than a normal 911, this was conformed by a conversation with Harvey Weidman that just restored both set of wheels for mine.
