A newbie question:
Are there adapters to put "ricer" rims on the 914? There are literally HUNDREDS of sizes and styles available, but alas, in 4x108 bolt pattern. I realize it would probably be a spacer arrangement with the spacers bolted to the existing hole location and studs or lugs in the spacers... the question is, are those available? I also realize it would probably only work on a car with flares... ok, no big deal. If they aren't available, I can get a friend to make me some, (he has a lathe, mill, etc at home) but wanted to look for commercial products first. Brad |

QUOTE(Mueller @ Nov 11 2004, 01:35 AM) Mark, not all "ricer" rims are 17" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) many are available in 15" at dirt cheap prices and very light weight (spec Miata rims) I realize that...maybe it's just the 17" rims, they look too much like wheels off of a 10-speed bike for my taste. On some cars the big wheels look real cool, to me the 914 isn't one of them. BTW I'm no CW guy, my teen has 15" EMPI sprint stars. I was real hot to do the bling thing too, as cool rims for Hon-duhs are quite cheap hear as well. Also 15" tires are very cheap. |
