I understand that these are not to everyone's taste, but please set that aside -
Wondering if anyone has run these or if the offsets are just too much for the typical GT flared car... A quick search came up with little info and no photos on a 914 - These also come in 11" rears which is too wide currently for my car - Thanks - Attached image(s) |

So based on what I am reading, while using these wheels is not necessarily ideal due to the offset and the needed spacers, there are cars in place that are running wheels with the larger offsets. I'm currently in a place where spending the money for 3 piece wheels won't happen in my near future. I'm still contemplating these, so if anyone has pics of a 914 with these wheels, please do me a favor and post them. Thanks for all the input!
