Thanks. I can now rename mysterywheel.jpg
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Are these Mahles well-regarded wheels? Are Revolutions well-regarded? Rivieras seem unpopular. edit: I guess by well-regarged I mean valuable/pricey/rare... edit^2: I guess by regarged I mean regarded, not regurgitated... |

Aaron is right, that is a Mahle wheel. I actually like the Mahles best. I cant stand the Pedrinis.

there are only 3 factory 4-lug alloy wheels (all 3 are 15"x5.5").... #1 is the Fuchs (forged and one pound lighter) The Pedrini and Mahle are a tie, it's a personal preferance Fuchs normally go for about $400 to $500 for a set of 4 the other 2, the price ranges from $200 to $400 per set of course the price can be higher or lower depending on location and condition Revolutions are a brand from England, a good quality wheel which are available in different sizes....15x6, 15x7 for sure, and 17x7 (what I have) |
