Rare wheels?

Ron O1984/2010 IM, B.C. Canada

I have two steel VW wheels (normal VW slots). I bought them used in the mid 70s and put them in storage when I sold me beetle in the early 80s.

They're the standard VW 4 bolt, but the width and offset are a bit unusual.

The width is 5.5 inches (stamped on the wheel) and the offset is approximately 40/41 mm.

Any idea what VW these two wheels came off of?

Are they rare?

Best guess:

if 14 inch rim, probably a later vw bus

if 15 inch rim, probably 914/4

Thanks Justin. I checked out a 914 forum and it looks like I have 914 wheels.
