Found this unusual wheel that I think is offbeat to the usual alloy....anyone using these? Pedrini style but I've never seen these on a car before.
Would these fit a 914 with 5 lug hubs? Attached image(s)

Hoping to know what they are called to do a search.
Did Pedrini make wheels for Campi? The manufacture Pedrini F P S is clear in the picture. |

QUOTE(bandjoey @ Nov 14 2012, 10:24 PM)  Hoping to know what they are called to do a search. Did Pedrini make wheels for Campi? The manufacture Pedrini F P S is clear in the picture. Foundry Pedrini Siena did not make Campagnolos. All those Italian wheel makers are like a brotherhood. They all knew each other and had so much on the buffet tables one could not make all the wheels for every manufacturer that was in demand. Camp was very inovative with magnesium. But there is a possible link. Campagnolo had a sub-company named Fulcrum. Supposedly it incorporated in the 2000's. Could The F be for Fulcrum Pedrini S.r.I ??? Just might be. Just look at all those 60's and 70's Ducati's that everyone thinks has Campagnolos but they really are FPS wheels. Very similar designs. Who really knows for sure. Personally I think Campagnolo was pushing the magnesium side of the wheel business and Pedrini had the aluminum end. Campagnolo even did work for NASA. Both make lots of product: wheels, castings, bicycle components. They both even make wine cork screws. Fine cork screws they are. |
