Full Version: WTB 4 lug Mahle wheels
I'm starting in on a 72 resto I've been sitting on for a few years. I'm hoping to find a set (preferably 5) 4 lug Mahle's. I'm in Spokane WA. I do have 4 2.0 4 lug Fuchs if anyone is interested in a trade.
A word to the wise. Make sure each wheel has been spun balanced and checked for being out of round. These wheels were cast and not forged. Most are bent at this juncture.

It’s hard to find a set that don’t have flat spots or wobbles.
Thought the 72s would have had pedrinis?
Regardless, I will 2nd or 3rd the bent rim issue.
I bought 4 sets and a few singles to end up with 8 straight wheels.

I need qty ONE. So... if you wind up with extra, let me know and I'll purchase it and/or get it when I'm in Spokane
Cheers!

Thanks for the advice on the condition. I was aiming for a bit of a non traditional final product so not too concerned with originality but may need to head in a different direction.
