Please share pictures of 5.5X14" Fuchs on car

[flatsixcrazy]

Good morning.

I have a set of 5.5X14" Fuchs that I'm trying to decided if I should use it or not. I've been searching the archive but to no avail on how do these 14" Fuchs would look on a car (probably because they are not that very popular). Could you please share pictures of 14" Fuchs on your car? TIA.

Sure, I'll bite. Here is a set of 14s I have shod with 185/70-14s, so the result is about 94% of the standard diameter. I'll add that the car has been lowered slightly.

I will eventually put the correct diameter tires on the rims.

Thanks Roger and bdladd for the pictures. Your cars look fantastic. From an untrained eye, I cannot yet appreciate the differences between the way 14" and 15" Fuchs look on a SWB. However, your pictures help me decide to use the 14" Fuchs. Now, it's only a matter of getting the right tire and size, perhaps Vredenstein's 180HR14? Thanks again.

That's exactly what I was thinking. I have their 165HR15s on my chromed steelies and do like the tires.
