Hi everyone. I would like to buy a set of 4 or 5 15x5.5 steel wheels, like the ones shown below. I'm looking for the 5.5", not 5". Will take any cosmetic condition as long as the wheels are straight (they will be stripped and powdercoated). Thank you.

It is too bad you don't need a set of rivieras ........... I have a set with new tires that will be going away very very cheap in the not too distant future.

If you don't mind building a set one at a time, I can check and see if I have a 5.5... If so, it'd be yours for the cost of getting the tire off and actual shipping and paypal fees.

Richard, I'm hoping to find a set in one shot, but something tells me I'm going to have to piece things together. When you have a moment, could you please help me check to see if your wheel is 5.5"? I think I may have found 2 or 3 from another board member. Thanks! -duc |

Unfortunately, my phone doesn't handle photos very well. I know, for a tech guy, my phone is so '90s! Did your wheel come off a 914?

Where's the P/N on the wheel? I'm pretty sure it's the Porsche unit, (doesn't the 'J' represent the offset, which would make it the 914 wheel... So I don't have to trust the PO on yet another thing)

Mon/Tues when I'm up at CAMP, I'll ask Craig to look at his wheel and see if I can find anything. I really appreciate your time!!!! -duc |

I have 4. I cannot find any numbers or sizes stamped on them. 2 are pretty rusty. 2 have old tires on them. I measure 6.75 outside the rim. P.M. me if interested.
