American 4 spokes (Le mans) are quite common.

Sorry to burst your bubble.

i know of a few sets, i would classify them in the highly uncommon realm more so that the ultra rare.

Anybody ever seen (or have) rivieras that are only 4 1/2 wide, but still have the raised square areas on the spokes?? I've got one and need another.

a one off? set of hand made steel 14 by 6" and 14 by 7" rims.

the rims are dated 71 and 72 so i guess that that is about when they were made. i don't know who made them yet, but they had a LOT of time on thier hands. originaly chromed.

a big thank you to Ash who let them go from his stash.

not for sale

These are another verson of Fumagalli stamped '67, I've never seen another set around. A few years back Everett had one wheel he sold on here, I think he just wanted the tire. I have a set of 5 sitting in the garage.


I am pretty sure I have a set of these in my barn. If not they are VERY similar.

Ah they are different. the center is pretty much identical, but the holes around the outside are elongated.
