Can anyone tell me what these wheels are and how much they might be worth? I have only seen them on one other 914.

They look like "Gurney" wheels from Western Racing.

I recall the name "Offenhauser" from the 70's, maybe the 60's

Dan Gurney made by western wheel. Price depends on condition. Maybe 350 for a nice set.

Good looking wheels, but I think I've read the center caps are hard to find.

I had these on my '74 back in the day. The center caps may be hard to find, but you also need to be sure to get the correct lug bolts with the flat washer to properly mount them.

Not sure what they are worth, but I bet rarity is not a factor. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) |

I've got a set of these on my car. If you use a wire brush with a soft bristle, they shine up real nice. Mine say western wheel on them. Look at the back side.
