Hi ya'll
After waiting 30 years I finally got my 1st. 914 ( YEA! ) It came with Riveara wheels. The trouble is, it also has very tall and skinny tires on it. 165 R15. I would go to shorter fatter tires but..... There is absolutely NO room to go wider. The previous owner even had to curl the inside lip of the wheel opening to get these on!

How do I measure these rims to determine their offset and what offset do I need in a rim to go with more acceptable, re: driveable, tire?

Thanks,
Bill (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
