Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone could provide some feedback or recommendation on purchasing some tires and wheels for my 1975 1.8L 914. I wanted to upgrade the wheels on my 914 to a 5 lug conversion to fit some Fuchs on it. Question is... 1. Is it worth it to convert to the 5 lug and pretty simple to do? 2. I have someone selling their wheels and tires for a good price but the wheel sizes are 15x6 (front) and 15x8 (rear). Will this fit the stock 914 narrow body?? or will I have to for sure add fender flares to fit these? thank you in advance! |
