New rims Dage Fuch
 

Well whilst my car has been away getting restored i have bought loads of different wheel, then changed my mind etc.... think i have found the ones now..

Thinking gold centres, these are pretty rare made by compomotive in the 80's for DAGE the porsche tuner.. picked up eight as part of a deal and have provisionally sold the 11's and 9's to a buggy boy.

What do you reckon, gold centre, polished rim with a stretched tyre.

Gold, black or silver with polished lips will look great. Nice find.

Those are awesome! Gold centers, Black bolts, polished lips. You could always paint the centers the body color......

Those wheels are 3-piece right? What sizes? Want to sell a set? :D

Pete

Yes 3 piece split rims.... I think i have sold some of the really wide ones to a mate with a buggy, just waiting confimation...

should be able to make a set of 7s and 8's for the rear so will have a little poke.:lmao:

sorry to highjack a little,

just informative I have a similar set of wheels, I wanted to narrow the fronts a little and I contacted compomotive, very friendly they set me up with a set of narrower rims of their existing wheel series, just redrilled with some more holes to fit the older dage ones -and not that expensive- so if you wil be in need of some other widths for the wheels I think you should contact them

Friendly

spoke to them today mate, as 2 outer lips had some damage, ordered 2 old stock 2 hole outers not to bad £70 each.. are the bolts m6 or m7?

Hi

they are M6s with self locking metalic -not nylon- nuts

Friendly

Dimitrios

Post pics when you get them together.

Should look great with a little stretch and poke. :D

Give us a clue - what's the spec?

15x6.5 and 15x7,5, 6.5" back space.. 1/2 outer lip and 1.5" outer lip

Ahhhhhhh nice new rims Jim, my favs, although I prefer the 17" version.
Must say, you have a real problem with wheels ;) .... how many sets is this on the cab so far?

far to many, most just get planned then i see something else i like.. sticking with the sport classics... i think.... er for now... till i change my mind:lmao::p

What are the offsets as in ET?

15x6.5 ET?
15x7.5 ET?

From Jim's figures I make that:
15x6.5 ET74
15x7.5 ET60

How do i measure the offset to get an accurate figure with basic tools etc..

Cheers

or should i use these..
 

could not resist these as my cab is going to be signal yellow.., got 2 sets of classics now...:D
