hi all,

I m in search of a set of 914-6 original Fuchs rims.
May I ask if early 911 rims are the same as 914-6 rims? are the offset the same? Or are they two completely different wheels?

Thanks for any help.
Cheers
Carson

PET shows three parts numbers for Fuchs in a 914-6. Offset is either 42 or 41.

Here is a link to a Pelican post of Fuchs sizes, offsets and usage.

The 14s were an option. It is not clear if the 15s were or not; they were a popular dealer upgrade at the very least.

5.5x15" steel wheels were the standard rim on the 914-6, with 5.5x14" Fuchs or 5.5x15"Mahle wheels as options. As Dave alluded to, many dealers switched things around to increase profits. Amazing how many cars ended up with a steel rim for the spare when they were optioned for the alloy wheels.
