They look like Amercan Racing Torque Thrust D rims with a wierd offset. Could be Empi, but I've never seen them before.

Retro hotrod cool. Not sure why they would be touted as Porsche... Maybe because of the bolt pattern, but....

Thanks Guys! I think I will buy 'em if I they are available. Would be a fun retro look for Daily Driving tires. Thanks for the extra pictures on the 914's....they look cool. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
