Hi, does anyone recognise these wheels? They came on my 1970 914. Are these original? Thanks - Dean

I don't.

I opened a post in our forums. A Pelican community member may be able to answer your question.

They do not appear to be any of the stock 914 wheels. I don't know what they are, though.

Any marking on the rear ?,maybe just guessing but I think they were made in the UK,seen something like them on a Lotus.
Many of the English aftermarket wheel makers used a design with an open flat centre so they could be cast then drilled to many differant PCD's,Superlite is a company that does this,also cosmic had similar setup.
