Classic Alfa Forums

Not decided on diameter but want to fill the arches more, keep period look and fit the lowering springs I already have ready to fit.

Anything going spare that would fit the bill?

I have some rare Compomotive FH500, in 15" x 7j, and some almost equally rare Borbet A's in 16" x 7.5j that i will be looking to sell, either as they are or refurbished?

To find them in 4 x 98 pcd is almost unheard of, i even have to use other fitments myself

Also have some 13" but wide and deep dish minilites to sort out too, also in 4 x 98 pcd if i recall correctly but would have to double check, but as you want to fill the arch a bit more i wouldn't think they are of much interest

Hi Shrew

any more info / pics / prices on the minilites?

rsfruitbat

The compomotive look like they would work on my car, could you send me pics - what condition are they in?

I will take photos of the minilites and fh500 wheels for the thread on Saturday for you both.

Can you stand the suspense!

thanks Shrew

CRUEL!

Sorry,

if i can get there any sooner, i will do, i promise!

Ok chaps, i have managed to get to my wheel store, just, and dug out the rims to show you and took some details too.

Firstly the 13" minilite type.


There are 3 deeper dish style, and 2 slightly shallower, which are actually labelled as two gates wheels, which is Alleycat Wheels.

The offsets are pretty close though, with the 3 x minites having an inset T of 92mm, and the Alley Cats have an inset T of 106mm, against a total width of 200mm.

They have a typical aftermarket oversized centre bore and would require spigot rings (10 quid total on ebay)




Now, apologies, i could only safely reach one of the FH500s in a hurry, but they are all the same as this one anyway.
These are 15" x 7j wide, 200mm total max width, and have an inset T of 135mm (et35).

These were purposely machined to alfa fitment so have a centre bore of just a nats over 58mm, either 58.1 or 58.6, hard to tell with my basic verniers and a flat battery for the digital readout!



Feel free to enquire for more info should you need it, obviously i bought these as stock for refurbishment and future resale, well, i do love the FH500s actually and would probably have used them myself at some point, but they can all be sold if I'm appropriately tempted!

I can sell as they are, or perform any stage of refurb, from stripped to finished as you would like?


Over to you....

I want those fh500's!!!! Can you pm me a price refurbished?

Oooh and loving those deep dish minilites but not sure they would suit a late sprint?

Hi Shrew.

so 2 of one style and 3 of another.

bearing in mind mine is all Sud running gear would they fit without spacers?
in J terms what width are they?
What width tyre would be sensible on them?
Obviously the age old question how much as is?

Hi mate

Yes 2 alleycat and 3 minilite styles/designs

All are 7j, 200mm front to back total rim width.

I'm guessing that with inboard fronts and stock sud rears they should be fine as they are, but i could mock one up on a hub for you to double check first for you.

Pricewise, i think for 5 in this fitment, 200 pounds as they are sounds or feels a decent deal?

Hi Shrew

thats sounds fine. I need to finish off my EPS first of all and then see what cash is left after getting my new seats.
If you know anyone who would be interested in my old ones let me know.

If you have still got them after that then i will give you a shout.

What are "your old ones" mate?

Drop me a pm/mail me if you like, ill see if i can generate some intetest in them for you and help things along

Those fh500 are very nice . I'd go for an all alloy look, rim and edges polished to death, spoke centres matte.

Hi Shrew

My old ones are Corbeau Pro-series. 5yrs old in June, done about 30 rallies (mainly tarmac).
Nothing that i can see wrong with them but the MSA put a 5yr life on them for competing in .
Absolutely fine for a road or trackday car but cant use them for competition.

I have advertisd them in the classifieds.
