14" Pts Wheels?

Recommended Posts

Rich_p

I was having a look for 309 photos on the net and came across the one in the link below

 

wheels

 

I think the wheels look like a 14" version of the rare 13's that only a few people seem to have.

 

Has anyone seen these before? I'm conviced they look more like the PTS wheels rather than just a 1.6 gti alloy with the centre drilled out.

They do appear chunkier than normal 1.6 ones... but its not a very clear pic. I know Spike on here as the pts 13" ones... never knew they did pts 14" ones though, maybe im uneducated. :-P

I think they are a 13" PTS wheel but a little blurred in the picture and running forest tyres which makes them look bigger. I have never seen 14" PTS wheels. The only other similar is the metric t16 ones

Digging up an old post of mine as I've answered my own question and thought I'd share the info as I guess it May interest some of you.

 

The wheels in question are 5.5x15, these must be extremely rare!

It seems there were also SL434 style wheels in 13" & 16" too which I've not seen before

:) I'd like some of the 1600 style PTS ones in 15"!

 

The 16" SL's look bloody awful on that car!

The 14's could be done in a 2 piece, but he hasn't made tooling for the 14" rims as it's not a very popular size.

Iffy picture but this looks like a 14" made into a 15" deep dish split rim

Nah, they're just flat centred 3piece rims machined to look similar to pepper pots. Pretty cool though
