Most guys don't use a 911 wheel in a 914 because they are pretty large in diameter and might rub your legs. 911 wheels have a Porsche hub, same as early 70-71 914's. For an early car, you just need the early plastic hub that has a metal horn cancel tab. You can use a later 72-76 plastic hub on this wheel to fit a 72-76 914. It will work but it's not optimal.
1970-1971 914's have a Porsche hub (flat front) that has a model number ending in "10" 1972-1976 914's have a VW hub (concave front and chamfer on the back of the hub) that has a model number ending in "11" |
