Does anybody know if the new "Euro" style, 5 spoke wheel offered by California Imports (Cip1.com) will work on a '76 4 without any rub? The wheel is a 4 bolt x 130mm with a 4.5 inch backspace. The catalog number is C23-VW32ALU. The tech guys at Cip were not sure about the fit.

with a 205/50, those should fit the front just fine....I "think" they'll be too wide for bone stock, unmolested lip-intact rear fenders......can you get the offset? Looks like they have plenty of material to have them machined to have a perfect offset for stock fenders...

Don't know about the spacing but...... i like those.

The size is 15 x 6

I yes yes definately, 4 1/2 " back space is the same as Fuch 4 lugs. 195/50-15 for sure and a narrow section width 205/50-15..

Thanks for the responses. I hope to hear from someone who put them on their car.

well, if they are the only importers of the rim as they say, you'd think they'd know if they sold a set to a 914 person.....

you are the second person to post this question in the last few months, no one has responded saying they have tried them.....

I'd try to find if they sold a set to a bug guy somewhat local and see if you can test them on your car.

think you could downsize the attachment???

What's the size of the wheel? 15x5/6/7?

Thanks for the information. Sorry, I didn't do the picture right.

Just curious to see if there was any problems with the fit and wondering what they look like on the car?

We have a sub base in Missouri?

I guess that's kinda under the radar.

Protecting the waters of the central US!!

Must be working, haven't heard of any incidents at sea from those parts.

Yeah, the base was built in MO after we had the great flood in 1993.

Am I missing something? I still can not find a 914 or anything automotive related in that picture. I am just very curious as to why it was posted?

It's a photo of an open stretch of the Mississippi River, and a girl standing on a bridge taking in the view. Good stuff, mate. Having spent a few years in the midwest, that brings back fond memories.

And it's a guy thing.

I think these were brought up before, someone said they were beyond heavy!! IIRC

I had to resize that pic for ya. 800x600 works well.

I HATE horizontal scroll bars.
