Three sets of wheels and two singles to end up with 7 straight usable wheels:

I think they'll look good on my willow green '72.

Add pictures when installed on your '72 Willow.

I also have a 1972 in Willow Green - still restoring it - other 914 projects get in the way...

They look great. Pedrinis and Males are much softer aluminum than 2.0 Fuchs so it's hard to get a good set. I sold a set of 5 to TJB and I think they were all straight but they came off a low mileage, one owner car. The owner only used the origional high profile tires so I think that helped. TJB powercoated them as well and they looked terrific.

As a new member hope this Pedrini question goes through... How can you tell the difference between "early" and "late" Pedrinis by looking at a picture from the back? I noticed some have a tapered center bore and others a counterbore. I would think that the counterbored one will fit later 73> cars, but not sure. Can a set of tapered bores be machined to fit later cars? Thank you, Joel

Did the same thing with my ATS wheels. Love the soft cast look.
