    Arturo,
    Be careful with buying these '380mm / RS' wheels.
    There are many 914/4 wheels being passed off as 'RS' wheels.
    They are $50 wheels being sold for big $$$ and will take time/work to make them fit whereas the proper 914-6/RS wheels are a five minute bolt on excercise.
    There was an excellent thread by Andyjboy some time ago giving correct part numbers and dates for both the -4 and -6 wheels.
    Not good with computers so I can't post a link - anyone ?
    Make sure you have the correct wheel part number before you bid on e bay.

    Cheers,
    Dennis.

    Ditto what Dennis said, also be very leary purchasing from this particular vendor, they claim to have many "rare" parts, steering wheels, hood badges etc. They never list the parts # even when asked and also won't show the center hub which is key to it being correct and compatible to a 911.

    Here's some good stuff
