I'm looking at my car lately and thinking i might keep the gt style steels that are currently rolling the shell around.
I have a set of riviera alloys and both types need restoring. I'm just not sure which to go for. What 4 lug wheels are you running? Any pics for ideas? |

What year is your 914? I would try and find a stock alloy wheel for your 914.

What year is your 914? I would try and find a stock alloy wheel for your 914. It's 1974 model but as it was stripped to near bate shell before i bought it keeping it original would be too expensive and quite a bit of hassle. There are few spares over here for it. When all charges are taken into account when buying from usa, the cost soon starts to spiral. |

I'm looking at my car lately and thinking i might keep the gt style steels that are currently rolling the shell around. I have a set of riviera alloys and both types need restoring. I'm just not sure which to go for. What 4 lug wheels are you running? Any pics for ideas? I like the Riviera alloys I partially restored. Personally I like the Centerline rims on the 914. |
