I am looking to replace the 4 Lug Riviera's on my VW with some chromies and would like to pre-sell the Rivieras so they wont be sitting around taking up space.
These rims were on the car when I bought it in 1987 and I have only put 20,000 miles on them over that time. I believe these to be original Rivieras and not EMPI or aftermarket. They are in very good condition and can use a little polish to remove some light oxidation. These are beautiful looking rims, but I'm looking for a change. Asking $550 OBO Local pick up in Sherman Oaks, CA. |

Calvinator, those look very nice!
You might want to pull one off to get the actual mfgr. & the offset, since there was a VW offset, & the 914 offset of ET40, to help prospective buyers. FYI - Those are the later repops, but I can't say whose. The originals don't have that lip for clip-on weights around the outer edge. The originals are all flat, like mine on my 73 914 2L since before I got it from the OO in 1975, in the pic below. > Note: Mine are the brushed aluminum finish - not polished like yours, so they always look more downplayed/dull. Those are also the double reversed "r" logo Riviera center-caps, but many broke, got lost or were replaced/upgraded. Rivieras were very popular in the 70s & 80's as a cost effective & easy way to get a 5-spoke look without having to redrill for 5-lugs. PS - Yours look like the same cast pot metal center caps that I got & hand painted to put on our `88 Westy aluminum wheels, but the 3 tiny Allen screws were insufficient to hold them on at any speed - so they kept flying off on the freeway around curves - so I took them off & stored them. Very poorly designed, but looked cool painted - my wife loved them on "her Happy Van"! I mention this in case you're planning to transfer them to the new wheels, as they may become dangerous projectiles on the freeway. So watch out with those center caps! GLWTS!
