They don't make 6.5 inch wide Fuchs. They go from 6-7-8 inches. They DID make 4.5 and 5.5 in limited amounts.

The prices on Fuchs have been going over the years, do no duch thing as cheapies nay more.

15x6 Fuchs are around, I picked up a set searching Autowrecking yards for $200, Stockton Autowrecking.
16x6 Fuchs I bought here and there from World members for $400 for the set.

Both fit nicely under the stock narrowbody 914.

If you want moderately priced 5-lug wheels you might need to go to Cookie Cutters. I think they look better on 914s than 911's or 944s

Cookies (15x7) do fit with some effort and they are cheap!
