4 1/2 Steel Wheels

[Oldskl60]

Hi All After a trip to my local tyre guy to have some old tyres taken off so I can restore my 66 dated KPZ 4 1/2 steel rims, turns out I'm now looking to buy a set... The appreciate left them out for the scrap metal guy!!!!

If anyone can help with one or a set, I would appreciate it very much.

Kind regards Tom

WTAF... sounds like your local tyre guy should be looking to buy a set..!

Ouch I bet that hurt. I recently purchased a 1972 Alfa 2000GT Veloce that was fitted with genuine Momo's and while they are nice, I spent a good deal of timing sourcing a set of factory steels which are getting hard to find and a tad expensive. Suggest you talk to your tyre man coz that is a costly mistake. Maybe the scrappy might still have them.

Yes he won't be getting away free, my main concern is finding them at the moment...

Maxilite repops available, also Stoddard do steel and chome finish, gives you tubeless compatibility and saves refinishing, since youll be running hubcaps anyway, just a thought.

I like this idea but I would get some 5.5 wide repo for regular use and keep looking for date correct originals if you must have narrow wheels.
