Porsche 914 Questions

Hello again, could someone please kindly speculate what the tire and wheel sizes on this 914? I would also love the source for the front spoiler...sorry for the 'bit photo'. The front spoiler has 'rounded' lower corner edges in front of the tires. Love the stance!



I love the spoiler on this car as well and tire and wheel set-up. Thank you very much!

Fuchs 7 & 8's with 215 and 225 x 15, front looks like standard GT flared valance.

Possibly a 60 series. The problem with running short sidewall tires on these, is they just don't fit the era.

Mine are 7 & 8's on 15s, profile is 50. Fitment is good with 1/2 inch spacers up front. Mark

They actually look like 7s and 9s--if you look at the rear wheels the lugs are a bit sunk in compared to the 8's shown lower in the thread. Here's my car with that wheel combination--tires are standard for an '88 930 Fronts are 7x16 with 205/55/16 and rears are 9x16 with 245/45/16s
