289FIA wheel from Trigo
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hello

I'm interest to change the wheels on my car. Now I'm interest to go with the 289FIA wheels from Trigo.

Before I'll order it, I need the size of the wheels and the adapters to be sure they fit on my Cobra!!


Has anyone experience with this wheel and could send me the size information I need?

Thanks.

Trigo FIA wheels are 7 1/2'' wide front and 9 1/2'' wide rear--they have 3 1/2'' offset(D on your image) adapters fit 4 1/2"(ford) 4 3/4''(GM), plus 5 and 5 1/2'' bolt patterns, order accordingly for your particular bolt pattern. The adapters will add aprox. 3/4''--another words your new Trigo wheel will sit 3/4'' further outboard than the current bolt on wheel, usually not a problem unless you have a solid rear axle then you "may" encounter the wheel and tire doesn't fit inside the fender lip quite right.

Hope this helps--Trigo is very easy to work with and if you can give them a call they can and will go out of their way to make sure that you get the correct wheels and adapters. I know it might be difficult calling them from Europe.

Forgive me but I believe item "B" in you diagram is your negative offset value. The adapters add .375 increase in track width per side.
