For Sale, set of four Pedrini wheels off my '75. Very nice condition, see photo's attached. Will include a fifth Pedrini that is nice and shiny like these, but the outer rim around the bead had been repaired in the past, with the repair cosmetically visible. Its great for spare tire use though.
Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of that fifth wheel, but will try and arrange to get one to those interested. Its still lurking in the trunk of my car, which is at my mechanics shop a bit of hike from my home (getting a 6 transplanted (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ). Questions, or for additional pictures etc. please contact me at: icuthbertson (at) shaw (dot) ca <edit: Price reduced, $350 plus frt>   |

it may be that the early wheels were always on the rear of your car.
From your pictures I would question whether the early wheels were machined. I would try and mount the early wheels on the front of your 914, if they don't fit, then there is your answer. The rear of the 914 throughout all years is lug-centric and was never hub-centric, meaning that early wheels will fit the back of any year 914. The only real disadvantage to this is that you cannot rotate the tires front to back. |

The rear of the 914 throughout all years is lug-centric and was never hub-centric, meaning that early wheels will fit the back of any year 914. The only real disadvantage to this is that you cannot rotate the tires front to back. Since buying the car, I had all the wheels off to get new tires mounted. And don't recall any issues with certain wheels only fitting on the front (or vice versa). I had no idea there was a difference in the wheels, so randomly mounting them back on the car and coincidently having them match the right placements seems just too lucky. I'm sure it would have come up if there would have been a problem mounting them to a particular rotor. Unfortunately, I can't go back and check the fitment front and rear now as I've already swapped the suspension out and these wheels now have one too few bolt holes to fit my car. So regardless, looks like I've got two early, and two late Pedrini's for sale. From what I understand from this discussion, if the early's have been machined, the set will fit on any year of 914. If we assume the early's have not been machined, then we can say that: Pre-73 owners could definitely mount this set on their car, early's on the front, lates on the rear. Post-73 owners could definitely mount this set on their car, lates on the front, early's on the rear. If someone could confirm this, I'd appreciate it!!! BTW, I'm modifying my price with all this to $US400 OBO for the mixed set (including the spare), buyer pays freight. May also consider selling them as pairs. |

May also consider selling them as pairs. 73 & later had a larger machined surface on the hub to center the rim ("hubcentric") so the centering hole on the 73 & up was machined to fit the larger front hub. any year pedrini will fit any corner on a pre 73 914 any year pedrini will fit rear only of a 73 up 914 73 up pedrini will ONLY fit 73 up 914 front (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
