I'm finally getting around to working on the '73 2.0 that I bought in April of last year... Being a '73 2.0 in very-much stock form, it still has the 15x5.5 Appearance Package 2.0 FUCHS, which I want to preserve for shows/etc...
I want to get a second set of wheels and tires for daily/fun driving, but of course am finding limited options in 4x130. I've done a bunch of searches here and found the threads that discuss various wheels that can be historically found on 914s, but I'm trying to find ones that I can still buy today... I'd really like to get something in a 16" or 17" by maybe 7" so that I can get some wider tread and shorter sidewalls... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) In either case, I'm expecting to be going with ~205s, as I have no desire to roll fenders and would rather not run spacers, etc... From my searches here, I've found: 16" Superlites from Pack Racing (as documented by Nick Mironov) 17" Revolutions (as Documented by Mueller) Can anybody provide options I may not be aware of (and if you can post a link to a source, that would be GREAT)? In the absence of options, can anybody help me narrow-down what I should looking for in a 16x7 or 17x7 for offset and/or backspacing on a stock fendered/suspended '73 2.0? Thanks! Dave |

As a newbie trying to figure out this whole wheel/tire thing with stock fenders and 4-bolts this has been a helpful post! I'm interested to see how the superlights look on your car, please post pictures when done! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif)
