Need the brain trusts noggins on whether this mystery wheel might bolt up to a Momo hub. The existing hub says Made in Italy but that’s it. Wheel has no identification but it has a fat grip and finger notches on the back. Love the ergonomics but the spaced on it is not designed for 6’2”. Car originally a 4

Thoughts?

Took it to a machine shop which specializes in Formula Fords to see if they could cut down the rings and then reassemble. They said for $300 to $400 no problem. Yeah right. If no one knows I might just order a Momo hub and see if they match, that is if Momo still makes them.

It looks like a Momo hub with an adapter attached to it.
Take the adapter off and measure the diameter and spacing of the mounting hole is the hub and post it. I can probably find my Momo hub this evening and measure it.

I have a Momo hub that was drilled and tapped to fit a 5 screw wheel common in the US like Grant Wheels. I have also made adapter plates to fit a LeCarra wheel to a Momo hub and to then use the smaller diameter Momo style horn button. All way less than $200. the cast aluminum style Momo hub is very adaptable.Attached Image

If it uses the same bolt pattern as the Italian Luisi wheels, you can use this spacer to adapt it.

Dam. In Cali until Sunday or I could get the measurements. Will definitely do when I return to the Pac NW.
