[DeTomaso] Roin Wheels

[Julian Kift]

No, I think you will find the source for Wilkinson's wheels is Cesare Magistrali, who has the original Campi molds and owns a sand casting business. Those wheels will be direct copies produced from original molds and in close to original spec magnesium. Cesare told me he had an order for 200, but he wants up front payment and it sounded like there was reluctance to front all the money. Previously reported price tag was going to be around $6,000 a set direct from Cesare, I ahev no idea how much the shipping and vendor distribution will add to that.

I hadn't paid much attention to this post from Ron which passed without a lot of comment until I went over to the PI forum and saw the photos of the wheels.

These are extremely good copies of the GP4/GT5/GT5S wide body wheels in 6082T6. These have got to be a great way to go as an alternative to the original Campi's and Ron is looking to pull together a group buy for additional savings.





>>>Months ago Wilkinson told me that he and Santiago were working on a deal to produce 200 GT5 wheels.   I wonder if this is the source?
