They're probably made up one-offs
Early 914 4 centers jigged and welded to Chevy or whatever rims.
Not for the weight conscious but a great look as seen today among the Early S crowd.

Easy way to choose width and offset

Did anyone get any detail photos of the #59 Brumos 914 interior. Specifically, the firewall, seat, belts?

Look closely in this screen grab you'll see the area I'm looking for.Attached Image

I'm pretty sure the owner is John Straub of SoCal who is on Instagram as @alongfortheride__johnstraub I do not think he's on World but maybe

John is a fine art photographer and I think he was a factory Porsche driver back in the day.

i knew that might me the case... what i love about them is the deep dish look. since most of the wheels available for the non flared body are basically flush with the fender

and your also spot on about the chevy part - i have seen this look on 55's and some early 50 fords painted black or red with a small chrome cap to hid the wheel nuts.

any idea on wheels are are not custom fabricated that achieve this look????

Having custom backspaced Steele’s made is very common in the street rod world, especially around you in CA. https://www.wheelvintiques.com For instance. Not expensive either.

I think he sold his Boxster, but I'm pretty sure he will never sell his 914...

Correct, and correct...I'd have to be in a very bad way before I'd let the 914 go.


So great to see so many of you there!!

When the wheels were painted body color with small hubcaps it was often on the least expensive models.
In the hotrod / muscle car world they are known as dog dish or poverty
hubcaps.

Unfortunately the 356's got no respect having to park in the dirt!
