I am in the process of flaring the fenders on my 75 914. The back has been pushed out about 1.5" so far.
In the picture it has a 16X7 with a 1/2" spacer and 1/2" of tire hanging over the edge of the wheel. There is still a little room to spare. Anyone have any suggestions for wheels? I would really like to stick with 15" but I know that might not be possible. I think 15X8 fuchs would work great but I can't seem to find any for a near reasonable price. I really don't want to spend more than a grand on wheels... I also thought it might be interesting to go with stock wheels off of a late model 911 or boxter. Enough people get aftermarket wheels that the stock ones seem reasonably priced. Thoughts... --zach Attached image(s)
