Hello Chaz, welcome here. I have 8x17 and 9x17 Compomotive TS and they costed 1800 Euro from the Dutch importer, 2600 Euro with Bridgestone 215/45 and 245/40. But be careful what you order, because I ordered them with zero offset, and calculated that they would exact fit under the wheelarches, but when I got them, the fronts had 20mm offset and the rears -25mm offset (is much wider track). Instead of returning them I used the spacers I already had and it was the last push I needed to build a GTO lookalike from my 308. Not everybody will be prepared to do this, though...  | ||

Hi again guys, i was given different quotes for Compomotive wheels fron Shiltec Ferrari, from 8 x 17, 9x17 to the ones i chose which are 8x18 and 9x18 these are being supplied with tyres as well which are 225 and 255. I know 18inch 3 piece split rims are expensive any way and i do agree this was a high price, i think it is becourse Shiltec ferrari are a business therefore have to put extra on to make a profit on ordering and selling me the wheels. In highnsight if i was not so pissed off trying to find wheels for the F, i could have gone to Compomotive direct. The total cost of the package was �2800 and i had to pay �1400 deposit.Funny realy i was only going to spend a Grand originally.C | ||

Chaz welcome from another UK owner, but a word of warning.... I believe you are being seriously ripped off on those wheels, I have bought a number of sets of Compomotive wheels inc the 'F40 pattern' for various cars, I reckon the price should be around �300 a rim for comparison here is a recent quote below, admittedly for 15" rims (which are a special order) Compomotive can do an 8.5 x 15 and a 10.5 x 15 in the TS 3 piece style. 8.5x15 TS = �200.00 + VAT each 10.5x15 TS = �235.00 + VAT each Are the prices you qouted inc tyres?, even so these should only be around another �500 or so all in If it's not too late it's worth contacting George Polley Motorsport for the rims, give Steve a call Address: George Polley� Motorsport Wimblington Road Manea nr.March Cambs PE15 0JR Tel.

Hello to you all, i am in the UK and have been veiwing your site for the last two months.I have a 89 328 gts and have had some real problems getting aftermarket wheels from so called wheel experts in shops,(very frustrating),any way i contacted a Derby based Ferrari specialist called Shiltech ferrari who said they would ring me back and they actually DID (blooby hell), anyway they have been VERY helpful and have orderd a set of 18inch Compomotive TS 3 piece wheels(like F40s), with 225 up front 255 rear, these should take four weeks for delevery( why four weeks i wonder becourse the company is about 50 miles from me). Has any one else tried this combination,Compomotive reckon they will fit straight on no probs and at nearly �3000 i would think so to ey! I have read ALL the archives and cannot find this type of 18inch wheel combination on any other 308/328 are there any?please give me feedback. Thanks guys.C |
