Looks like ST to me but the rears might be 930.

The rears look like turbo, they have a shoulder.
The fronts look like st or maybe rsr?
They are wide!
Espo
75 911 SCRS
so the st flairs have a more rounder edge insted of the sholder of the 930
yes they are wide wheels will be on the wide side allso i think i will run 16/9 front and some custom made fuchs 16/12 rear?? who is the best shop to custom make a set of wheels? i have a set of 16x6 and 16x7 doner wheels for the project

Some better photos of the flairs would help.
Get your tires before you make wheels. 16s may have a limited size availability.

If you're going to be using the original 65 rear trailing arms I'd give some thought as to how MUCH wheel and tire you want to load into the rather spindly rear trailing arm and bearing. Just food for thought!!1

Ed,
What I'm thinking; removing the flairs and sell the 65 to get a LWB would ultimately be easier.
IMHO, H
I sold alot of flairs to Palm Springs guys in that era..most were RSR

The front do look like RSR the rears need a better photo to be sure but they do look like they could be RSR also.
I bought a '68 912 which had steel RSR flairs put on back in the late 70's. (Bought the 912 for the cost of RSR flares, cut them off and gave the 912 to my son as a project. )
I will take some photos tomorrow and post so you can compare.
Ed has some good advice re wheel width.
