Does anyone have a set of BRM 4 stud wheels I could put on my car just to see what they look like??

I am on south coast

Any help?

Be careful with the offset, I dunno about 4 bolt BRMS but the 4 bolt EMPI copies don't fit the back as they have a 19 or 23ET offset

No idea if they were originals or copies but here's some
four-bolt Empi's on my old 914/4

And there was room for a fag-paper between tyre and wheeel arch

I'd go for four bolt Mahles or Pedrinis - (if they fit) they look very cool. Saw some Geminis on a 14 aswell and they worked really well.

currently have a 69 with alleycats fitted all round. A 75 with Pedrinis and now a 71 with 2ltr alloys but thought BRMs may be a different choice just to be different.

Have you got some pictures of your fleet???? Also, are you going to Stanford Hall with any of them?

OK bad choice of typing on my part, I had EMPIs on my Ol' Yell' Un too, the rear pair had been machined on the mounting face to get them to fit a bit better, I think what I meant was the over all fitment issue in so far as with the wrong ET the handling was comparatively shocking shite!

David fit the BRMs & then sell me the 2 litre Fuchs for a bargin basement knockdown price

Sorry guys not going to sell the 2Ltr alloys as in my opinion they are the best wheel for the 914.

Just thought BRM's would look nice and different.

ABM I will post some pics of the cars but one is a scrapper which I am gradually selling off and will eventuually have fun with a plasma cutter!!

the 75 is an on going project of about 4 years now I think and the 71 is a new one which I bought about 6 weeks ago but I will post some pics and sorry i cant make it to Stanford hall I think the first show i will go to with the 71 is the Porsche Festival later this year at brands!
