Just had my 75's Riviera's stripped for polishing and discovered major cracks on one...can't relax and drive it that way. I need a used one to replace it. Thanks. Should be able to fit 195 15s (3.25 center opening...5.5 rim width).

I have a set in Kileen TX.

PM me if you're interested.

Thanks,

Hey Kerry,

You should post pix of your wheels to determine if they're the original Rivs with the flat outer rim (like in Rhodyguy's pix shown above), or the later repops with edge lip for mounting clamp-on balancing weights. Otherwise you could end up with a mismatched set.

Original Riviera's came with the 914 ET40 offset, in addition to the VW Bug offset, but I'm not sure that all of the later Riv repops came in ET40 too. You'll want to match the offset of your current Rivs, which is what Rhody is trying to show you with the tape measured pix.

Hope this helps.

Good Luck! beerchug.gif

Thanks Tom. We are good. I've confirmed measures and rim with Rhodyguy. Glad to have found one. As you say, there are lots of repops that won't work...a rim jungle out there when searching for these older Rivieras.
