    RARE Euro wheels

    So I went to the jy today and found a set of these on a old beat up legend, I thought they looked good so I picked them up for cheap. Little did I know that they somewhat rare.

    They seem to be popular in the Euro crowd.

    From what I know they are OZ Fittipaldi Monolithics

    I kind of cleand 2 of them. I'll do the rest tomarrow.

    Tell me what you think or

              Not rare. Fittipaldi branded wheels were very popular in the late 80 and early 90s. That is back when wheels were actually hub centric with proper offsets and people willingly paid for quality.

              Eagle, american, prime, progressive and probably others all had copies of them

                  Maybe a cb7 or cd5 cap will fit. Try 1. Do some trimmin.

                    Thank you all!

                    I'm trying to decied between polished look or brushed look.

                    What do you think?

                      It's a little too big. The diameter for the center caps on the Fittipaldi's are 6.25 in.

                      These are what I believe are supposed to be on them. But i like the way the Honda "H" would look on them.

                            I like the brushed look better, but you should go with whatever you like best. Fittipaldi wheels are not cheap wheels so good find dude. I think they will look right at home on a CB.
