Are there any Minilite style wheels in 15x7 or15x8 ish with a 4 x 108 bolt circle?

4x4.25" (small Ford and Mustang) is also useful while searching.

Also Revolution wheels will make you anything you'd like and they have a Minilite style wheel.

Yeah I know about the 4x4.25 being within 0.05mm!! but I was hoping for something cheap, not genuine minilites. I'll keep looking.

I had a set of Superlights in that pattern. Decent price but not ultra light.

You could also just get the OEM optional wheels that were available on that car, but they were only 6 inches wide, I believe.

I thought the minilite style were for the earlier 4x114.5?

While your here, what's the center bore and offset?

Wow, I din't know RB's came in 4x108. This could be the answer next year.

Just curious Adrian, but what type of car are you looking to put these on?

They were available in 4x114.3 and 4x108.

Center bore is 65.1, and IIRC the offset on the ugly stock wheels was +40mm.

4x108 is fairly common because Fords use it. Fox Mustangs,Focus and Fiesta use it. The GRM Fiesta has RBs on it. They're a good looking wheel IMHO. I run a set of 16s on my MINI.

I ended up getting a set of wheels from a 93 Turbo and painting them like the CE wheels. Looks great and GRM pricing.

I have Mustang spares on my C900 parts car. Make sure you trial fit the center bores. Some fit some don't.

I have superlites on my GT6, but I think you can get them in pretty much any bolt pattern.

I have a 15x7 and a 14x7 set of Panasports that are 4x108.

And have used 4x4.25 without worrying about it at an autocross. Well, the Challenge, to be more specific.

Look at a shop that supports Alfas.

CE wheels?

CE = Commemorative Edition, a fancy, last-year*, limited run of 900 Turbos, all of them black, and all with 185 hp. Note the directional rims, which look like 3-spoke SPG rims but in motion:


*Calling them "last year" (1993) is a bit inaccurate, as in 1994, the first year of the new-gen 900, you could still buy a MY94 c900 convertible, as there was no ng900 ragtop yet.
