I currently have a 73 2.0 with the original Fuchs. Can I just bolt these puppies on in their place?

Iron Crosses

Will this mounting hardward fit too?

Thanks!

The lug pattern looks good. I'd be worried about the back spacing and width. See this thread for your Fuchs specs: Post #2

The offset looks to be incorrect for a stock 914 ...

They’re EMPI so they’ll bolt on, but it’s pretty safe to say they’re going to be Beetle offset which means anything besides 165R-15 will rub. If you’re serious about running them go to The Samba and ask the Type 3 or Karmann Ghia crowd if they work. They pretty much need the same offset.

These are 3.5" spacing and 914 needs 4.5"

I have seen 914s with those wheels.
They work but the offset will limit your tire selection. Fine for a street car, not great for a AX car.

... also at that price they're most likely cast rather than forged. They'll likely break instead of bend if used on the track and treated harshly, or you hit a curb at speed. That is unless they're actually steel!

I bought these recently and am very happy with them.

Correct backspace and with new toyo's - look different than the few other street 914's around...

Don't buy the caps, however... very heavy and $$. You could find a set of 911 caps and paint them cheaper!
