Any c900 wheel thru '87 will work.
If you still have 99 front hubs the only one that will work with center caps is the Inca.
The Inca wheel is also the lightest, but they also bend easily.
If you look for Incas check carefully for flat spots in the rim, especially on the inside. They can be straightened by a good wheel repair shop.
During the '70's there were a lot of stock steel centers installed into wider rims by custom wheel fabricators - usually 6".
6" with 30 offset would be great. The Saab option wheels that would work on the c900 '88+ were 6" with 33 offset.
The closest I have come with new wheels is 6" with 25 offset.
The 5.5 stock rimes are 40 offset.
