Dumb question - couldn't find answer using Search. What is the width of the stock 914 steel wheel - is it 4.5 or 5.5 inches? I'm selling mine and a prospective buyer is asking. I always assumed they were 5.5, but you know about assumptions.
Thanks, |

Those are indeed the (late) steel wheels, aka Super Beetle wheels. The width should be 5.5", and should be stamped on the rim itself, probably looking like 5.5Jx15. J means it's a rim suitable for a tubeless tire.
