tires and wheels Cosmic brand alloy wheels

[Gil]

Anyone know where to find Cosmic alloy rims? I have two of them for a non-02 car that I want to match up. They are 6"x13" with a 4x98mm bolt pattern. Were these available for 02s?

I have seen at least two styles, and I think they would look great on an 02 if they were available in 100mm bolt pattern. I think these were 70s vintage wheels.

TIA,

Cosmic MKII wheels. I also found a place that sells brand new

centers and I have a set of 8 of those, along with new clips.

I'm looking quite forward to refurbishing these wheels and

putting them on an 02.

I've always loved these wheels and think they are really

period looking.

Where to find them? Hmm....word of mouth, other O2'ers,

a WTB post on 02 boards, Craigslist, and Ebay.

Also, have a look at the MG/Triumph/Mini boards too.

Seriously....not much help, but I found mine via PacNW

o2'ers. They aren't easy to find.

Jerry. Those are a nice looking version of Cosmic wheels. Mine look different, and different from the ones C.D. posted. Mine say design no. 958.077 on them. I'd post a pic if I could find my digicam software CD.

I tried ebay auction closed items, and found none like mine. I've tried Google a bit with no luck. I see they were made in England, so maybe I might focus on looking there. I might have to put them on a wishlist of things to search for from now to eternity......

It would be nice, I think, to have wheels that not many other folks have.

If they are '70s Cosmic wheels, being a UK Co they may be 4 x 4" (ie not metric)? Maybe they exported them in metric?

I had back then was getting them balanced properly. With todays technology it would be a snap.

had a Fiat 124 Spider in the late '90's that was 4x98 mm, swapped on a set of 14x6 alloys from a 4 bolt Maserati BiTurbo that used the same bolt pattern. Believe Fiat 850s and some small Alfas may also also have been the same pattern. As you undoubtedly know, '02's, E21's and E30's (except for M3's) all are 4x100.....
