Just curious.. Everyone post up pictures of aftermarket wheels. I don't think it would be a terrible idea to have a thread that shows all different options for 914 wheels people wanting to get a different set of wheels.

Show me what you got. I'll start out..

VTO Wheels 15x7 minilites. Fit with an almost identical offset to 15x7 cookie cutters.

Minilites.... actual magnesium, hence the often misused term "Mag wheels"

This is my '76 bought in Phoenix. Saw ARE above and understand these are American Racing ....? Can somebody give me a good name for these. I have three sets that I don't need and will probably list on classified one of these days. Anybody interested?

Do the VTO wheels use a flat of a cone lug bolt/nut? The ones I want are one sale but it sounds like they come with nuts rather then bolts and i dont know any sorrce for flat seat bolts.

Thank you
They are 6 "x 15" The tires are Dunlop Sport 8000's 205-55 ZR's
The wheels were mfd. in England from the 60's-70's and were often seen on sports race cars.
Panasport, EMPI and many others are copies of this wheel.
I don't know if the wheel had a model number or a name. They are pretty hard to find and can be expensive. A much wider size of this wheel was often used on the rear of period 911 and 914GT race cars. Visit the 914 GT site for more pictures.
Minilite is still in business. The wheels look about the same but are all aluminum now.
The tires are probably NLA
AFAIK the yellow highlights are original.
