Jonnydutt Posted October 19, 2018 Posted October 19, 2018 Does anybody know where I can find some 13x8 Superlight style wheels for my 92 Caterham, I believe they are 4x108 bolt spacing. Also looking for a full width aero screen if anybody is looking to sell one. Thanks
Croc Posted October 19, 2018 Posted October 19, 2018 (edited) Good morning. There are lots of Caterham superlight wheels over the years. The 2007 onwards models are for sale on the Caterham website. For 1992 I think they were Mike Barnby wheels? The business is still around in the UK and you can order direct. http://www.mb-racingwheels.com/ Edited October 19, 2018 by Croc
Croc Posted October 19, 2018 Posted October 19, 2018 If they are not the right wheels, please post a photo so we can better understand the exact style you are searching for.
Jonnydutt Posted October 19, 2018 Author Posted October 19, 2018 http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=14655&stc=1So I have the 6 inch wide wheels on front and back and just want to fill out the arches on the back with some wider rubber, if I could find some 8" ones that look close enough to the fronts it would save me replacing all 4. If anybody has a used set of front and rear wheels I would be interested too, thanks!
Jonnydutt Posted October 20, 2018 Author Posted October 20, 2018 Hi Croc, I tried to post a picture of the front wheels but I am looking for the Minilite style wheels, I think in England there was a company called Superlight or Superlite maybe that made them with a nice polished lip. Thanks, Jonathan
Croc Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 ah hah...that helps. Is it these? https://vintagewheelsus.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=57&products_id=508
Croc Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 I was thinking Caterham superlight car original equipment wheels. But you wanted the aftermarket wheel. Got there eventually! Here is the UK website http://www.superlite-wheels.co.uk/
Jonnydutt Posted October 21, 2018 Author Posted October 21, 2018 Thanks Croc, I think I might ask Santa for some new Apollo wheels!
Jonnydutt Posted November 29, 2018 Author Posted November 29, 2018 Hi Croc, I was able to find some 13 x 7 wheels on Ebay that really fill up the rear arches nicely! I did have to get 4 so if anybody else is looking for a pair I have 2 brand new in the box, $250 for the pair including shipping in the US! http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=14817&stc=1http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=14818&stc=1
