Chris,
I'd be interested in these. Are they still for sale?

[Chris Jarvis]

Yes, I've still got them.

There are only two, remember.

[Cloggie]

Hi Chris. Thanks for the reply.Yes, I was aware of that. Do you have any pictures showing their condition? Cheers, Nico/

You know that the wheels are 7.5 x 14" and 5 stud fitting?

Anyway, here's an image of them.

I saw a set of replica ones on the Omicron site a while ago, does anyone know if any progress was ever made with these?

In 1998 / 1999 the Campagnolo wheel factory was closed. The moulds were reported to be in very poor condition prior to the closure, and it is unlikely that they will be repaired.

The choice of tyres in a 15" size was also very limited, so we are in the process of getting replica style wheels made in a 16" rim size, as the tyre choice is much better.

As you can see we have taken moulds from a set of 15" wheels, and these are with the wheel factory now.

It has been some time since this project was started, and for various reasons, it has not progressed as quickly as we would like. We are now pressing to get the project ressurected quickly.

Sorry about the image I attached. It's too small to see any detail.

My problem is that the files that I have are too large to attach to a message on this forum.

I could attach them to your personal e-mail address, if I knew what that was?

Chris J., please email the pictures to nico.alonzi@celerant.cc

Chris R., regarding Group 4 wheels, I'm currently talking with an Italian supplier of 15" versions of the Grp. 4 design (8" and 10" widths), who can provide a full set of new Aluminium Replica wheels for €3,360. (I'll try to attach the pictures...)

I also made contact with Udo Sparwald in Germany, but he wanted over €5,000 for a set of 15" replicas!

If someone else (Omicron or yourself?) can provide 16" versions at the same sort of price levels with a resonable leadtime, then I'll place my order with them.....

Otherwise, I'm going with the 15" option and I'll take a chance on finding tyres. (To be honest, I've had more luck finding potential sources of 15" tyres than 16" rims!)

Please advise the anticipated timeframe 16" replicas, and if you can supply an additional set.

Thanks in advance, Nico/

I just pasted that bit from the Omicron website - the "we" is Omicron, not me!:eek:

[Cloggie]

Chris, thanks for the clarification. I thought that was the case, but wasn't sure.....:confused:

I did contact Omicron over 8 months ago after finding the same comment on their website, and did approach them with my interest, but I've never heard back since, even after a couple of reminder Emails....:mad:

Looks like I'm going for the 15" route. Thanks for the steer...

Cheers, Nico/

If you're looking for 15" wheels, my wheels will be no good to you. They're 14" (Stradale wheels).

[Cloggie]

Hi Chris,
The Stradale wheels were not for me but the person in Italy that I'm buying the Group 4 Campagnolo's from. We were trying to agree a deal as he's looking for parts for a restoration project, but unfortunately he's got plenty Stradale wheels already. (Maybe he can provide you with another 2 for a full set?)

Roberto Cassetta - robycass@tin.it

In this case, unfortunately I can't take my interest any further... sorry. :(

If I hear of anyone else looking for wheels, I'll let you know.

Can I suggest you may also want to try 2 other dealers in genuine Stratos parts to see if they're interested:


Udo Sparwald - info@lancia-stratos.de

and

Dennis McGann - http://www.allferrariparts.com


Hope this helps, Nico/
