914World.com _ 914World Garage _ new wheels, trailer tie downs

Posted by: bernbomb914 Oct 22 2005, 01:34 PM

I bought a set of ATS wheels from a member and had Al Reed refinish them. also include pic of trailer tie downs that I saw at the Ventura show they work only if you have studs instead of bolts but they hold the car the right way so you dont screw up the suspension.

sorry but it looks like a good way to bend or break a stud.
a lot of leverage out there.

tire slings seem like the safest way to tie down on the wheels.

oops
you would remove the wheel nut which would relieve the leverage.I just screwed it on to show it off.

Thats what I was thinking. Aint no way I would use something like that. Not much thread engagment if you dont have extra long studs

Just yesterday I pulled 4 ATS wheels with 165x15 tires off of my 914 and put 4 lug Fuchs with 195x16x15's on. I hope your post if ATS wheels in all their glory make them all the rage so I can sell mine

How much per wheel to have them made beautiful?

$180 for 4 wheels to clean polish and paint. how wide are your wheels?
