In pictures of the Daytona winning 914-6 the wheels do not look very wide.

Most people now put 7” up front and 8s in rear with factory flares. I have 8” and 9” 16 on my car now but have bought a set of 7” and 8” 15 to give what I think is a more correct look. But the correct 1970, 71 or so look of the wheels look whinny to me.
