Porsche 914
The Porsche 914 came from the factory with steel wheels in most trim levels, typically running 14x5.5 or 15x5.5 depending on the year and market. The bolt pattern was 4x130mm - Porsche's signature pattern that they used across their lineup. Early cars often had simple painted steel wheels with hubcaps, while later models could be optioned with attractive cast aluminum wheels that had a distinctive five-spoke design.
Factory offset was typically around +23mm to +30mm, giving the car its characteristic stance without any fender interference. Our VTO vintage aluminum wheels are perfect for the 914, offering multiple sizes in the correct 4x130mm bolt pattern - from stock replacement 14x5.5 and 15x6 sizes up to wider 15x7, 15x8, and even 16x7 options for those wanting a more aggressive look. The vintage styling perfectly complements the 914's clean mid-engine design.
The 914 has become a cult classic among Porsche enthusiasts, representing an affordable entry point into vintage Porsche ownership while offering that pure mid-engine driving experience. Originally developed as a joint venture between Porsche and Volkswagen, these cars have shed their reputation as the 'poor man's Porsche' and are now celebrated for their balanced handling and unique place in automotive history.
