I found a sent of 5 lug 6 x 15 inch Porsche fuch wheels. Would they fit on a narrow bodied 914? the key word being 5 lug and I am uncertain if they are what you would call deep sixes??I've seen 914s with 7 inch wheels on narrow bodied.no fender rolling and they fit. then I have seen others where smaller sizes used and they rubbed and were no fit. Is there a way to know all the particulars of 914 narrow bodied fits??I couldn't find any blogs here. Although, I know this has been of interest on our site??

Also note that the 'deep six' and the other one sometimes called flat, are the exact same offset, so the fit is the same. 6x15 is a very safe bet. There is more to it than just wheels when it comes to the wider ones. Depends on a lot of things including wheel offset, camber, tire size, spring rate, and normal variance in bodywork. |
