I'm looking for a good restorable set of 15" x 6" Fuchs five lug wheels for a conversion project. What have you got? Thanks.

You may want to consider 6 x 16 Fuchs. Better tire selection, more around and usually not as pricey as the 15 ' s sought by the early 911 crowd.
This just got posted on Pelican.

I'd like the best set possible and within reason dollar-wise. The ones on the Samba, he doesn't want to ship.

The samba is a good place to check for wheels as they have a category. Seems like 1000 is an average low price. Don't get chrome. It can harden the wheel and lead to cracking.

Are you looking for flat 15x6s or "deep sixes"?
Timing may or may not be good, but I might have a set of deep sixes freshly restored by Weidman with fresh Dunlop 195/65R15s I'd part with, but need to find other wheels first.
Best,
