Wheel question

Hi,
I'm removing some fuchs from a donor car. I need to find a set of CHEAP wheels that will fit the lug pattern of 71 911. I believe that spacing is 5 x 130, but I'm not sure. Can anyone verify this for me, and does anyone know what type of wheel I could substitute from another manufacture? I need the wheels to roll the chassis around, thus I only want something cheap.

Thanks,
Brent

5x130 is correct. Problem is, no other manufacturer that I know uses the same pattern. You could search the classifieds here for some less wanted wheels like phonedials or cokkie cutters. They seem to come up for sale often and for not much dinero.

Another thought- space saver wheels/tires are cheap. For just moving the chassis, that may be the least expensive way to go.

The collapsible steel spares are pretty cheap.....just don't buy the alloys, muy expensive.....you have one in each trunk. All you need are two more.

Chevy/GMC 1/2 ton 2WD pickups were 5 on 127mm (aka 5 on 5") for years. Buy a cheap set and oval the lug holes if necessary. Closest you'll find.
