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.

^ Dave is spot on.
"Correct" when it comes to 914-6 GT is a tricky subject. The factory cars ran rallies on 15x5.5 steel wheels and 15x5x5 Mahle alloys. They were also equipped with 15x6-inch Fuchs (and 15x7 Fuchs and maybe 15x8 Fuchs). But others built up 914-6 GTs from the kits offered by Porsche, sometimes using parts Porsche supplied—or some of those parts—and sometimes not. Those cars are considered real GTs, also—and may have run wider Fuchs and/or Minilites. 15x7, 15x8, and 15x9 wheels were all used in period. |
