New to the forum and new 914 owner, i have a 1976 2.0 914, I’m looking at changing my wheels out . I like the empi BRM wheels but I don’t know if they will fit. I get the 4x130; I looked at my manual and it has the stock wheels listed as [indent]5 1/2 J 15.
The empi rims have a choice of 41/2 or 51/2 I don’t want to assume to get the 51/2... any advise
