Since I don't want to be the laughing stock in the class I'll be placed in (QM I believe, Street Modified)

I figure I will have to step up to the plate and get a second set of rims and tires for auto-x (time trialing sooner or later...okay, much later)

car has stock fenders, I do not want to add flares, but I am open to the idea of rolling the fenders or pulling/bumping them out slightly

Current rims are 16x7 under stock fenders running 205/45/16's
(40mm offset rims)

thanks....too heavy and expensive for me !!!!

I have a different bolt pattern than most 914's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)


For me..... I could care less about weight... Personally, I think they look bad ass.

But.... the cost is a huge issue..... close to 2G's with tires on them... OUCH.

4X100 pattern?? How did you do that? Did you have the hubs drilled?? Or did you buy adaptors??

Hell.... if it's cost effective.. I could do the same thing.. and get a set of 17 inch rims online WITH tires on them for under 1G.

Got pics??
