What do you think? Ever seen these and will the backset work on a stock body? Are tires available, and what's a good size? Is this a good buy for a 914?

Thanks for the input

Ad doesn't give the offset or backspace, so you'll need to ask for one of those.
The 6x15 Fuchs are offset 36mm. If close to that you will be okay.

Those are cool. Unique for sure. Look a lot like like BMW 320i wheels. Don't know on the offset but the ad says they were removed off a 914...maybe he has some pics of them on the car? You can still get tires for 14". Fat ones but they look period correct.

I know Campegnolo made 14" wheels for the 914 and the -6 from the 70's-90's but I have never seen those wheels before. The offset on those wheels were correct for the stock fenders.
