Help+info for rims
« on: April 17, 2009, 10:33:41 am »
Hello Guys!

I have found these rims, according the owner these are Abarth rims ( I do know that Abarth has never produced any wheels) Could somebody help me who could be the manufacture of these wheels? The size of the weels are 8*13 or 8,5*13 what could these set of wheels worth?

Looks like Ruspa,Mille Miglia or perhaps Amadori.
Being so wide they will be at least 1970's onwards.I do not think earlier.
If it hasnt got 'ABARTH' cast into it......then maybe they are not Abarth.I do not think they are Abarth but i will not say 100%.
There are many wheels with Abarth cast into them (124,131,127,campagnolo,cromodora,speedline,open top race cars etc etc).
There will be a manufacturors stamp somewhere on them and most likely a year code.

 Check thoroughly for cracks,this is the best reason to buy newer replica wheels.
