After much research, decided to select Jongbloed to provide the new set of wheels on project 77.
Ryan @ Jongbloed in California was really helpful in guiding me to the lightest set of wide 17’s I could find (for a reasonable price) that would also hold up to track duty.
Even for relatively large wheels (for an old 911) they will still come out below 15lbs ea
Went with the the 305 style as it the lightest, the pattern is simple and strong, but also I like the stepped rim look on the older car and combined with the the smaller centre aids with weight reduction and lower rotating mass which is important as this won’t be a high horsepower car.
Weight savings will be helped by full titanium hardware!
Going with anodised black, but pics below show the style....
