Can anyone identify these wheels?

Post by RRoller123 »

I have always liked the look of these wheels and wonder if any of you knowledgeable folks could identify them? (I have no relationship to the ebay ad or the car)

Thanks.

Pete

They are copies of the Speedlines offered on the European supercharged Spider Volumex. I believe they (Speedlines) were originally 3-piece wheels.

The copies are a bit heavy, but can still be bought.

You can discuss the logic of mimicking a 3-piece wheel in a single-piece cast wheel...

A cleaner design is the Ronal A1 which was on many RWD Alfas in the 80s.

I would think that roadster salon could at least put the ashtray in right way around if they are poking to get 40 k for a spider. :mrgreen: :D :D
And then they show, what? 6 photos of it.... :roll:
