I have for sale 5x Van Diemen Turbo Wheels.
These are very rare Retro German Motorsport wheels made by the company that famously makes a lot of the Formula Ford components - 'Van Diemen'
4x100 pcd
13” x 8” (width measured at very outer edge)
Offset is unmarked, but there is a 5” backspace.
Using the rim width and backspace, I believe you can work out the offset.... Get an idea from the photos on the Renault 5 and Golf.
Centre bore is 60.1mm – Perfect for Renault, but you will need spigot rings to fit them on other cars – not expensive. Ask me if you need advice.
They are split rim and only weigh 4kg each, although they appear very strong.
Each wheel has been spun on a wheel balancer and is straight.
4 of the wheels have tyres (Falken 205/60R13) which will need replacing. I have left them on so you can trial fit on your car, or roll it around, but they can be supplied without tyres if you don’t want them – this will not affect the price.
All the split rims are sealed and they do not leak air at all.
I have polished the rims by hand and cleaned them. I personally don’t think they need a refurbishment as they look perfectly presentable as they are. But bear in mind they are not mint.
Please study the photos, as they explain the condition very well. I am not trying to hide anything.
4 unmatching Van Diemen Turbo’s where recently advertised on ebay for £700. These are advertised for £490 for 5 matching!
Postage available - £40 within the UK
Wheels are based at CM17 9HX – Near Harlow
£490 ono

- although the last ones are centre fit I think.
