yep it is me again - so I am in the mood to change up the wheels and tires. at first I thought I wanted some minilites. but now I would like the classic fuchs. there is an issue however my 73' still has the 4 bolt hub and I know the real fuchs are for a 5 bolt configuration.
so my ? is what is the best knock-off/imitation fuch I can get that will give that real fuch look?. the pic is what I am going for. also what is the tire to go along with this and I would like to go as wide as I can. -jp Attached thumbnail(s)

Buy PMBperformance 5 lug kit. ~$1k. Then 6x15 Fuchs with 205x60x15 tires. About $2,500-3k all in.
Or get 2.0 Fuchs with 4 lugs. Classic 914 look without any mods. |
