Over the years I've had six R wheels. Bought a pair at Hershey for $ 175. !!
Tough to mount modern tires on them.
Like many othr parts....wish I still had them.

I used to see pics of Campagnolo wheels on 914’s. Haven’t seen it in a while but always liked the look.

*Not the new ones, the older narrow wheels.

When you ask for opinions you'll get a thousand. Did it help you? I like my Mahles. Choose what YOU like.

I'll chime in with 16x7 Fuchs (or Euromeister reps as in my case w/ R888Rs on them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) )

am i the only one who likes the Pedrini?



Love 'em (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)




Funny how time and tastes change. My 914 started out on Pedrinis and I didn't like them back then. But both of your 914s look great to me on Pedrinis. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)

Also like four-lug Fuchs and, on the right car, four-lug steelies. 15x6.5 Minilites, too. There are a lot of good choices for the narrow cars—love the black-center 2.0 Fuchs as well as the 16x7s above—but I went for five-lug Fuchs "deep sixes" in the 1990s and am now toying with 215/60R15s on 7Rs for the rear…

A bit of everything: My former Bumblebee (w/o Yellow trim) w/polished Mahle's, my 914/6 with Minilites, or my son's car with American Libre



Loving all three of these.

My favorite wheel is the American Libre with black centers.

^ Was Euromeister an Automotion brand that sort of lived on after Automotion was sold, and maybe sold again?

Fortunately, Braid wheels (and one other?) makes 16-inch Fuchs-look wheels these days. Braid is better known for its rally wheels, so I would guess they're plenty strong.
