Anyone run these Mobelwagen wheels?
I’m kind of diggin’ the interceptor, but the backspacing on the 15 x 5.5 is 4”. I think they’ll be fine with the 185’s that came with my car but would require some work on the rear fender lips if I ever move to 205’s. They do have the “schnell” for less money and proper backspacing - and kind of look like 4 lug aftermarket Fuchs. They’d go on this car. My 1st 914 that I recently acquired from TDSkip (thanks Tom!). |

I purchased a set of these while they were offered at 25% off 4th of July sale .. got them dirt cheap and no shipping because their local warehouse for my region is right down the road from me, so I picked them up.
I have ALWAYS wanted a set of “aluminum Steelies”, which I thought was just an idea/dream ‘til I realized that Boyd Covington Wheels offered them for thousands of dollars! Plus I also appreciate the look of early wide-5 wheels, though I'd admit that on the 914, it’s probably not ideal. Yea in a perfect world these wouldn't necessarily feature that aspect of design, but I also don't hate it either. I will need to and should be able to manipulate the fenders to work with these since I'm still in the paint/body stage. I understand they’re not for everyone, but that's kind of the point too.. I was actually hoping nobody else would notice them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) - I like em and am happy with the purchase. Attached thumbnail(s) |
