fuchs

Dan, that sure is a good looking car.

or 7" steelies

better look

these were a bit rusted and neglected when I got them...I just did a quicky paint job with some rattle can gloss black for centers and gloss grey for the rims.

they will be bead blasted and repainted in a factory finish silver and then clear coated. That job will start next week once I get the old race rubber off of them.

close up of black spoke empi looks

and thank you Lou.

close up of Fuchs

these were pretty bad when I got them....spent about 5 hours hand finishing and polishing....came out fairly decent....

or you could go 5 lug and do 6 and 7" painted and polished Fuchs

these were my street wheels and tires for my 6

Mahles on the primered car and Rivieras on the orange car

i like the rims note. i also like how the 916 front end is seemless. how did u do it?
steve

hey mike. did u use wheel adapters or did u convert to 5 lug rotors?
steve

Nope, there is a specific year of 944 that has the perfect offset. They are 24mm and 15mm IIRC. I can recheck. I am running 17X7 with 225/45 in front and 17x9.5 rear with 255/45. I didnt want to use adapters. I have 5 lug conversion parts and a 911 front. I have 2 sets of drilled rear rotors if anyone is interested ($100 ea + ship).

very rare Hegglin 5.5x15

Campagnola 5.5x15

phone dialers 6x15 or 7x15 or various 16"

BBS 9x15

f.p.s. - don't know the exact size

A really good spot to look at different wheel types here:

I welded brackets to the body and then pop riveted the front and rear bumpers to the brackets. The rear bumper is also seamless. Then, LOTS of fiberglass work !!

Steel and westerns

and East Coaster, new wallpaper thx

u disgust me with ur slant nose.
sorry but . oh well as long as ur happy with it

everyone knows slantnoses are faster

maybe so but it doesnt look as well. besides put a little more power in a regular 914 and u wont have to convert to slantnose.
steven

i like the chalon look so... to each his own... opinions are like assholes
i could argue that your car looks like everyone elses here

true but as long as we all like how we have personalized are 914s. i personally like the 916 look. i dont like the idea of cutting up the front end like they do with those chalon kits. but as long as we like wut we have and can defend y we did it its cool.

steven

NLA HRE 311 8X17 front 9X17 rear no spacers.

Some have very strong feeling against the chalon kit too
Just be happy that most of them keep their opinions to themselves.

yea i know....
so when people DO lend their expertise and time to help me out, i appreciate it that much more

i own a "normal" one too so i can fit in here lol

We don't mind even if you don't have a normal one. At least I don't. Your green 914 looks very nice though. It was a good find

Anywho... back to wheels.
