1973 Porsche 914 Base Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1973 Porsche 914 Base needs a 5x130 bolt pattern wheel. The stock setup runs 15x4.5 with a 42-millimeter offset. You can step up to 15x5, 15x5.5, 15x6, or 15x6.5, or drop to 14-inch diameters in widths from 4.5 to 6.5 inches. Since this car wears the same wheel all around, you have straightforward fitment without staggered considerations.
Keep in mind that only the 5x130 bolt pattern will fit your Porsche—no other patterns work on this car. The hub-centric bore is 71.6 millimeters; if your wheel's center bore exceeds that, use hub-centric rings to center it properly on the hub. Wider wheels and aggressive offsets risk contact with fenders and suspension components, so verify offset compatibility before ordering anything significantly different from stock dimensions.
Every wheel we list bolts directly onto your 914 Base and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. We stock BBS, Rotiform 1PC, Asanti Black, Victor Equipment, Vision, Status, Black Rhino, and Rohana Wheels—all verified to fit your exact application.
