    Hi,

    For scale modelling purposes I need to know the proper size of the original rims that were on the presentation 333SP. Google presents both 16" and 17" as alternatives and that's not helping me. I would like to know what size wheels were on the presentation car as per the picture. Tire size would be sufficient information. Any help would be very appreciated!


    Best regards,

    Ok, so having done extensive comparisons with pictures from the time, me and my friend Jeremy have concluded that the original wheels on the presentation car was 17". They raced a similar looking wheel for the first years that were definately 17". Later in the 90's they ran 18" but they give a distinctively different look.

    The conclusion here is that the presentation wheel was NOT 16" as sometimes stated. I will give up this statement face down if presented with evidence of the contrary. In the mean time I consider this case closed. ;)

    Thanks and best regards,
    Johan
