Wanted - Forged wheels, aluminium for 848 - Discs too....

Discussion in 'Wanted' started by comesunt, Jan 3, 2014.

  1. In addition to my recent post about 848 forged magnesium wheels; I'd also be keen to get a aluminium set...

    I need a spare set to race the 848...

    I see that magnesium and aluminium both have advantages and disadvantages....

    I'll be happy with either, but not cast ones...

    Thanks,

    Bob
     
  2. Ive a set of 1198 discs on ebay. £200. 6k miles on them.
     
  3. Ok, many thanks... I've had a look at them...

    If I don't find a front soon that comes with discs than we may be in business... :smile:

    Cheers,

    Bob
     
  4. 749 front fits too, and 916 etc rear from memory. If its for wets, anything will do ;-)
     
  5. Thanks...

    Plan is to put wets on my current cast wheels and get something better for the dry... I've heard that 916 etc rear may fit if I change the rear claiper??
     
  6. the hyper 1100, 848, 748, use the same rear axle size….
     
  7. Andy,

    How can you tell? Other than just looking at the sticker? Why are you not sure??

    I shall email them this afternoon (US still asleep)

    Many thanks,

    Bob
     
  8. It will fit but seems expensive when inport charges/tax added on.
     
  9. compare the shape of the spokes to your one from America……which does appear to me to be a forged one…
     
  10. yep looks like a forged one………good price uk too……go for it….
     
  11. you know what they are like……...:wink:
     
  12. Andy,

    Thanks for advice... It is now mine ! :smile:

    Cheers,

    Bob
     
  13. Yep, I hop it fits the 848, else it will be back on ebay :smile:
     
  14. If it fits the hub, also check that the offset is the same.
     
  15. FE, yep will do...

    just a front and a set of discs to go... :smile:

    Thanks,

    Bob
