Amazing 13x8 Wheels


Mike_B

Recommended Posts

I found a guy that has two 5 wheel sets of these (TRD Tosco's) available in 13x8 et -5 4x100. I am so tempted to get them for the pig cheek car currently at SCR. They look similar to the Ronals I've seen.

Now what to do about tires for 8" wide 13 inch wheels...

If you don't want them I'd like to know how much he wants for a set. I've got some fatty hoosiers needing 8 or 9" rims.

Both 13" & 14" diameters (in at least 5, 5.5 & 6 inch widths) and several different 4-stud bolt circles (saw a set of 14x6's - 4x98mm bolt circle) on an Alfa GTV last year), as well as at least a few sets in 5 stud configurations (which changed the design to 5 blanked-off spokes / 10 holes from 4 spokes / 8 holes). The only 5 stud set I've ever seen was in a photo of an early 70's Ital Design show car......

I've got a set of 13x5.5's with a 1976 casting date on my 69 that came to me with a full set of "Vial" alloy lug nuts - a set with a 1972 casting date sold at the Bay Area 02 meet a couple of years ago as well (think that was probably pretty early in the run - should have bought 'em!).

Absolutely BEautiful wheels!

Toyo has R888's in 225/45R13, $114/each at Tirecrawler.com

Tire Rack has Sumitomo HTR 200's 215/50R13 $54/each...good for the 8", but probably not for the 9"ers.

Hoosier has 225/50R13 and Kumho has 235's...(Tire Rack).

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
