Hi R,
Nice car--and I like the wheels (Am Racing LeMans)! Did the original owner buy the car from Alpine PA in Colorado Springs in 72? (That's where I got mine, and they put those wheels on a lot of the cars they sold that spring). Welcome. Steve A- |

clean looking car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
those rims are not stock or factory rims, just plain and simple aftermarket rims made back in the day (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

HI. nice car. my car came with 3 of those wheel. I could never find a forth so I bought some rivs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) from the swap meet . I hated the car with out four matching wheel. I painted the rivs black because I hate them.

Hey - Welcome to the club! This is a great place to learn about the 914! Lurk, read, post questions or poke fun. Good people here from all walks of life!
there are several of us here in P-ton, we'll have to gather at some point! Enjoy the car and drive it often! |

Sorry for the confusion--no, not stock rims . . . but Alpine PA was replacing the stock steel wheels with these as a promotion. This was a great deal, especially for non-App-Group cars with the "skinny" wheels.
Only drawback is that the offset is different from stock, so there's not enough clearance for a 185/70 tire (let alone a 205/60). On the plus side, I modified a set of early 911 fuchs caps (the 3-prong type) to fit these wheels. I'd like to know more about the dash repair . . . Thanks in advance, Steve A- Attached thumbnail(s)
