914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ Four free Riviera wheels in OC

Passing these along to anyone that needs them, you’re not pretty but they look straight and the price is right.

This is a very flattering picture, two of them are close to being presentable but the others are needing to be painted, which really means you’re cosmetically addressing all four if these are going to be more than just rollers.

Letting Gino know about these.

FYI & FWIW - these are the later repop versions with the edge lip for balancing weights.

Here's a pic of the original c. Nov. 1972 ones on my `73 for comparison -

> No lip, so you have to use stick-on weights with the original Rivieras.

GLWTS!

The ones with the lip for weights (the modern repops) also have a VW offset so they are closer to the fender lip. You can't run much more than a 165 on them without some mods.

If no one picks them up, I will come get them. I really only need one for a spare tire...if someone has just one wheel they want to get rid of....

@http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showuser=21137 - come and grab what you need, going to move these along outside the 914 community in the next couple of days.

Thanks!
