Nice... I'm a fan of the 914 and personal choice. Narrow body, flared, it's all good to me. Wheels look good too!

The tires are 205 60 15 Falken Ziex ZE-912.

These are a 4x130 Momo 5-1/2 x 15 wheel standard 914 offset.

My profile pic has a set of yellow pedrinis with autocross/track tires and my fuchs usually wear 205 50 15 RT615's.

I changed to these because I was tired of the gearing being wrong with the 50 series tires.

I have 3 sets of rims with tires, Momos, Fuchs and Late Steels. Just depends on the westcoast weather and I try to keep the car ready to drive year round.

Lol... I was just gonna say I have a black set of those wheels up in the barn since I'm switching to 5-lug. They do look nice though. :-)

I think these Momo wheels look great! Does anyone know how much one weighs? Are they cast or forged? Do they use a ball seat lug bolt or something different?

Beautiful wheels!
20 years ago I had a set on my dual carbed Beetle. I never see those around but it looks like some of the members have partial sets, if I wasn't converting to 5 lugs I would look for those.
Nice car! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)
