So I've been scoping out 4 lug options for my V8 914. It's slim pickin's overall, but I think I'd really dig some Revolutions. Apart from a few tasty pictures, I haven't found much information about them... like where I can get some. How impossible are they to find? Should I just start looking at other options and hope I run into a set?

I know where to find some, there on Elliot's black -4. Look really good too.
There are NLA. I haven't seen them on e-bay either.

They look great, but IMHO the positive offset is asking for trouble.

You'll get more of a curb-grinding than just curb-rash ...

Got to keep your distance from the curbs. These wheels are also very heavy.

My friend got his from Auto Atlanta. (He said he had them custom made... don't what that would have been.) I wonder if George can still come up with something?

They look like corvette wheels. I don't know where you'd find them, but I remember someone made adapters to go from the Porsche 4 bolt to 5 bolt chevy.

all matey says is:

To find out more about Revolution wheels [for the time being] you will have to call the factory:

Simply call 01293 851776 in the UK [or 0044 1293 851776 from abroad] and if you mention Matey-Matey they will give you a discount and advise on delivery times!

btw I emailed revolution to see if they are still making the rims earlier
