    Default Looking for set of wheels for Lola T91/50

    I'd like to pick up a 3rd set of wheels, I like to have 2 sets of slicks and 1 set of rains mounted.
    Where does one find wheels for an F3000?

    I have two sets now, one is BBS and one is Work. The Work wheels have tires mounted, so I can't pull any numbers off the wheels and the wheel centers are not labeled or stamped with any part numbers. They have 20 bolts holding the assembly together. The BBS are 12 bolts.

    BBS use the same inner hoop on all 4 corners:
    Part No: 01.16.014 0906 // Size: R-TI40 8-1/2 x 13 H

    BBS front outer Part No: 01.12.001 0906 // Size: R-TA35 2 x 13 H
    BBS front center stamped 0263254
    * I have 3 BBS front outer and one has a p/n that ends in 0507 instead of 0906. I don't know that it makes any difference.

    BBS rear outer Part No: 01.12.008 1008 // Size: R-TA35 5-1/2 x 13 H
    ** The Work wheels are 6-1/2" outer, and I'd really like to make my next set of wheels match that width. 15" overall will be for dry tires, 14" for rains.
    BBS rear center stamped 0263255

    Front drive pin circle 3.5" dia ; Rear drive pin circle 3.70" dia (pins are 0.49" dia)
    Both front and rear centers have a BBS standard qty 12 x 6mm bolt mounting circle on 250mm PCD with 235mm bore hole in the rim halves

    Yes, pitlanespares. com are the most likely source. Work Wheels are Japanese, but have a US operation:
    www.workwheelsusa.com

    I would guess the BBS numbers at the end are manufacture dates.

    You could also try Image wheels:
    www.imagewheels.co.uk

    Like MB, they will make to your size, offset, etc.

    Also, Alex wrote back from pitlanespares. Off hand he didn't think he had a complete set. We are hoping they are common though to '92 or '93 which he said Lola had the same front hubs 1992-2004 and rear hubs 1993-2004.

    I'm starting to feel like this T91/50 is like a 1968 Corvette. Lots of 1 year only parts! Ah the joy of vintage..

    9150 wheels are specific to 90 91 cars
    now 30 year old car so not easy to find wheels for cars that where still being used after the 91 season in club racing hillclimbing events in UK and Europe

    Ive had wheels gearbox uprights bodywork for these 90 91 cars but all now sold
    I think only front wing end plates and some disc bells left

    can supply 4 sets of the later 92-2004 car wheels and heaps uprights body wings gearbox parts
