The datsun 8 spokes use spacers that are smaller and they touch the center hub 14 inch 8 Spokes only look good on Ghia's thats what Roger Grego had on his Ghiacheap for a set of those ;) here's the links :http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Volkswagen-Porsche-EMPI-GTV-2-piece-rims_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ43954QQihZ012QQitemZ220160636927QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Volkswagen-Porsche-EMPI-GTV-2-piece-rims_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ43954QQihZ012QQitemZ220160636927QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW) Title: Re: OG empi 8 spokes Post by: Lids on October 17, 2007, 21:18:33 pm i saw those a few days ago, thought the same as keith and also why would i want 4 14" wheels. Old school is to have a pair for the front only!

Title: Re: OG empi 8 spokes Post by: empicolector on October 18, 2007, 17:15:19 pm Damn. Looks like Im stickin with the Sprints. Thanks Shubee! go zach bid I enjoy see them on your gtv :) Title: Re: OG empi 8 spokes Post by: Zach Gomulka on October 18, 2007, 18:04:13 pm I would need 15's to clear my 4 wheel discs and dropped spindles :( and I think the offset would be too great in the front, I would foul the fenders if I didnt narrow the beam. My 4.5" Sprints have 4.5" of backspace, so they tuck in nicely with the stock beam and dropped spindles. It would be nice to change the looks of the car whenever I wanted though! 8)
Title: Re: OG empi 8 spokes Post by: Diederick/DVK on October 18, 2007, 18:08:00 pm really? will all 14" wheels not fit on stock 4 lug discs?
Title: Re: OG empi 8 spokes Post by: Tobi/DFL on October 18, 2007, 18:16:56 pm really? will all 14" wheels not fit on stock 4 lug discs? No! My friend Christian from DFL has 14" spyder mags in front with stock discs (and narrowed beam) and everything fits without problems. However I guess CB lowered spindles wouldn´t fit.

cool picture by the way 8) too bad he got rid of the spyder mags Title: Re: OG empi 8 spokes Post by: nicolas on October 18, 2007, 19:17:20 pm 14" lower the car nice. ;) i had ATS on the square and that was a good stance. but i gladly got rid of them. it had a different look to it but 8 spokes look a lot better.
when the fastback was being build it sat on the ATS, but they didn't fit the front because of the large talbot brakes. |
