Hi folks. New member from PA.
This is how I last saw my 914 Chalon in 1989. I plan on building another one and would like to replicate this one. Kind of bring her spirit back to life in another body. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) I need help identifying these wheels please. I forgot the brand of the wheels and didn't care at the time I owned the car as an 18 year old. Someone already suggested Empi but Empi's are 8 spoke as far as I know. Any help? Thanks in advance. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)  |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) I dunno but Empi's were four lug. Those are 5's so it's not the standard 914 bolt pattern. It could be anything, look for Porsche bolt pattern wheels or even some pattern for other makes. If you had an adapter that you can remember. |

Those are made by Western Wheel Corporation.
Similar to the Caroll Shelby Anaconda. |

I did some searching based on your suggestion and found Western Wheels Panasport / Minilite 15x7 on a craigslist posting. That's the wheel! Thanks to all of you for your input and your welcomes.
