Hello. I am new to this group. I am looking for the original wheel and tire specs for factory 1970-72 914-6 GT's.

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. Bob B (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) |

I was just reading a quote from Steve Gaglione the owner of the Stenger GT and he wrote:
"My plan is to bring the "Strenger GT" back to its original form excluding a few very cool things that Erich Strenger did to the car. Like the 911S brakes and the 7 and 8 by 15 inch fuchs." Perhaps there were variants and came with different wheels? Factory GT - M471 - M491 This is a great thread with Steve and Gustl adding info: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/lofiversion/i...php?t90377.html |
