i rarely post this kind of thing. but $355.00 for an unrestored and what i presume is merely one of the leather or simulated leather wrapped padded wheels? who knew? i guess i don't need the one i have that much. i didn't check. if the blue light specials have them, i'm going to retire.

Then why is there a six specific wheel if they interchange so readily? On edit: Ok, I found the part number in the auction. Of course it doesn't say whether it's 4 or 6 specific in PET, but at least it's there. So, the winner may in fact have gotten a good ole rubber 914 wheel for $350. Ok from a guy in the know on Pelican: The 914s hubs are different than the 911 & 914/6 (recessed). Splines are the same and will go onto the 911 steering shaft but the depth is different. Turn signal cancelation ring mounting is different. You'll have to drill and countersink holes to mount it for the 911. The obvious diameter 400mm and 380mm difference between the 911 & 914/4, 914/6. Another difference is that the dish of the 914/4, 914/6 wheel is shallower than the 911 wheel due to the reduction in the diameter. Once mounted the wheel rim is closer to the dash. I have seen wheels marked with 914/6 numbers but have the 914/4 hubs. The correct hub is the key to finding a true 914/6 wheel. |
