    Where can I get some 17" Compomotive wheels for an '84 308? New or used is fine with me.

    You will need to contact them directly in the UK. They no longer have a distributor in the US. Expect to pay around $3k for a set, new.

    Hope you find a set - they do look stunning on the 308.

    Check these links out:

    http://www.comp.co.uk/wheels/wheels.asp?range=TS_0037

    http://www.imagewheels.co.uk/large_wheel_pages/f40.html

    I spoke with both these companies when I was looking for a set. The Compomotives - if they make them for you - will run you about $1500USD-$2000 more than the Image Wheels.

    Do your homework on both brands, make an informed decision. Check out the Boxer section. Here's some links that may help decide one way or the other:

    If you get them (Image or Comp), order a few extra wheel centers. Inexpensive up front, but seems impossible to order separately if you loose or damage one. And I know the Comp wheels are getting scarce, so the centers probably more so.

    Worth the little extra investment.

    Yes, I believe they are 3-piece wheels. Not sure on model, just that they are Aliseo.
    Is there a number or model on the wheel I can look for?
