You are correct, those are the original 74s and I have a set of Dunlop winter tires on them.

The 74s came with the car and at first I didn't like/run them. However, I always wind up having too many wheels in the garage. So, a few years ago I sold a lot of wheels to create space, then decided to paint the 74s, with a very dark gray center as an experiment and mount winters. That style of wheel has really grown on me. I had staggered 132s for summer.

A year ago acquired a set of 87s for summer and the 132s will eventually wind up as winters wheels when the 18" Dunlop winters are done.

I'd sell you my 74s but it was rattle can paint and they are definitely not in fine shape :-) A few years ago 74s could be had for less than $200 for a set but now they seem scarce. Funny how things come and go.
