besides paperweights? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) seriously, no idea, I'm guessing nothing too special, just a cast aluminum rim from someone like American Racing (just a name, nothing to do with real racing rims (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) ) how wide are they? have you looked for tires yet? |

that size will work...it's just a tad smaller than a 195/50-15 which is the smallest diameter tire I've seen on a 914....it'll be really quick with that small diameter, but your freeway speeds will have the motor buzzing along pretty high

They look like the original BBS design. But 13" ? I wouldnt run 13's on a 914.

i would. if they clear the brakes, etc., and were legal for my AX class. if they were wide enough to fit some competition tires on, it would be a great advantage in gearing. |
