Hi
are there any American car rims I can put on a 911 to roll it ?
even if I need to get the die grinder out a bit and move the hole in or out ,
I just need something to roll the car , not drive it anywhere
Any ideas ?
thanks
Dave

I don't know of any wheels other than porsche wheels that will fit the porsche pattern. This is what I did and it's just a suggestion if you can't find anything else. Bought a set of phone dial wheels and tires for $175, used them to move my car here and there for about 8 months and then sold them for $150. Even though it'll cost you some out of pocket money initally, you can get most of it back once you're done using them.
Here is a pic of the phone dials

I can tell you for sure that MoPar/Ford and GM will not fit by a long shot. I haven't tried the Ford truck 5 on 5" yet.
Leaf green 72T, SOLD!
Gone back to my MoPar roots!
This is what the body shop guys used to wheel my car around while I sent the deep sixes away for renovation.
Either cookies or space savers.
