i rarely post this kind of thing. but $355.00 for an unrestored and what i presume is merely one of the leather or simulated leather wrapped padded wheels? who knew? i guess i don't need the one i have that much. i didn't check. if the blue light specials have them, i'm going to retire.

thanks for adding the link. who did it? no comments?

WOW!!!
I just found a way to pay for my FG bumpers....
That is for a 914-6 wheel, they are popular with the early 911 crowd to use a 911 RS replica. The 911 RS actually used the smaller diameter 914-6 wheel. That's not really a bad price actually.
Huh, I didn't know the wheels were different, learn something new every day.

What Steve said... you're now into stupid money with the RS crowd (ask me how I know...)
It's kind of a strange wheel actually, I'm not finding too much on the part number, the date of manufacture is 9/73, but it appears to be a 914-6/911 style hub. If someone could place that from an actual 911 RS instead of just a 914-6 wheel, then it would probably be worth quite a bit more, maybe $1000 bucks. I would have thought the 911 RS would have had a leather wheel, who knows.
i looked in the garage for my wrapped wheel. must be in the shed, too cold right now. so what would the actual dif be in the diameter measurement between that one and the one out of a 4?

Diameter should be the same 380mm if I recall, the hub is different between the 4/6.
I think someone is getting hosed on that deal. A "semi-soft simulated leather" wheel made in 9/73? Don't think it is 914-6 and for sure not 911 RS! Sounds like a basic vinyl/foam 914 wheel to me.
I always look at the Bid History on auctions like this. 74teenr should get a bonus from the seller.

This is getting old... The hub is NOT different between a 4 and a 6. They WILL interchange. All you need to do is to pull the plastic adapter off the back of the /4 wheel, and put it on the back of the /6 wheel. The are splined exactly the same!!!!!!!!! |

highly suspect. why would he be chasing the bid and fall off towards the end? this one's a stinker in my book. i see an ebay dispute when the winner gets the wheel. i hate ebay.
