    I am considering reproducing the inner chrome ring for my Dino 2L Spyder rims as they do not appear available anymore. I was wondering if the 206 or 246 use the same chrome insert on the rim. It behind the spinner and fitted into the rim (see close up). I scanned a picture of the spare one that I have at home. It is an approximately 6.5” inch round disk; center cutout is 83.5mm; metal thickness is 1.33mm; height is 17.34 mm from highest point to bottom. Its weight is 245 g. I suspect it is not used on rims with lug nuts but am not sure. Andrew

    The rings are only used on knock off cars, as their purpose is to shield the rim from hammer blows. I purchased the rings for my 246 L from Dennis McCann a few months ago. I know he has quite a few NOS still.
