After waiting months I finally got my barrels from Germany. Now I can complete my brand new Compomotive TS17’s. I got five so I have a spare! Today is a GOOD day!!! Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
BEAUTIFUL !! I've been looking for set of these myself with NO LUCK so far. Anyone looking to part with a set please, just PM me. I'll even entertain building my own set if I could just find centers. But back to this thread, WOW simply gorgeous Anthony, you've got to be excited beyond words......
We are all waiting Anthony..... Where you bought them? How much you paid? Who sold them to you? .....c’mon...... we r waiting.
Congratulations! Welcome to the club! Just as soon as I stop staring at them and actually bolt them on, I'm in! I feel you pain. It took me years. And... no, you can't have mine!
Thanks guys. Years ago I got a tip from Mike that Compomotive had some NOS around. A few phone calls and I bought five centers. All I had to do was source the barrels. They are going on my 308 project. I’m matching the Center to accept a Center lock to hold the Center cover on so they look like F40 rims. I’ve been modeling the Center in CAD to be able to machine centers myself but I need to look into the legal issues before I start selling any.
Those look fantastic Mike! Why is it so hard for Compomotive or even Cromodora to make these in a 17" wheel???? Obviously there is a desire for these. Mike, are your rears 255/45/17s or is that a 16"?
225/50 rear, 205/55 front. I was about to go to 245/45 rear and 225/50 front, which works fine on 8" and 7" rims, and I think looks nicer.
No worries. I would have gone to the wider tyres by now (the P7s are 9 years old), but found the 17s in the meantime.
I have two sets of 16" HRE505's which are much like the Compomotives. I have 225/50/16 front and 245/50/16 rear. Be very careful of the tire brand you choose. I have some Falkens on one set and BFG G-Force's on the other and the difference in width is almost 1" in favor of the BFG's. They both work but all tires are not equal ......
Any info on Image Wheels from the UK? They have an F40 wheel that looks similar to Compomotive's TS17
