914World.com _ 914World Garage _ New Tires and Painted Stock Rims

Posted by: solex Jul 28 2013, 03:05 PM

I really like the way this looks and handles, I went with 195/65R15.

The rims were sand blasted and painted as close to to the stock satin silver. Next little project is to paint the lug caps black.

Nice. I'm doing the same. Steel wheels, 195x65x15. My 205's used to rub at full lock.

Thanks I love the way it drives it just feels right. I set the tire pressure to 28 psi in the rear and 26 psi in the front. Here is one more pic after a drive.

Great job. I really like those wheels with the chrome rings. That may not be the look you're going for though... Looks nice
