I've been reading the boards since way back when, but now I have a question! What wheels are these babies? No stamps what so ever. The lips are anodized and carry a speedline decal. Not sure if the centre is speedline though. Centres are a renn-style rough cast with machined surfaces and carries 'OPEL' and 'BMW' on the opposing spokes. My quest on google came short so maybe you guys know something? They kinda look like Cromodora's but they did not ran a 3 piece-split and the contours of the bolt holes a e wee bit different.  ![]() |

I can't say what they are but BWA did some similar 4 spoke wheels although I've not seen a split one before

perhaps someone made them into splits?

Somebody pointed out that they were indeed Abarth or actually Cromodora from the Fiat Abarth 131 Racing retrostrefa.blogspot.nl/2010/04/abarth-cromodora-cd-30-cz1.htmlPull it through google translate. Strange part is though, since they're made for Abarth they read 'FIAT' on one of the spokes. Mine carry 'OPEL' & 'BMW' on the opposing spokes and run the 4x100 bolt pattern. Does this mean Cromodora made a one-off set? Or was there another tuner who ran these wheels in their programme? I already contacted Cromodora but haven't heard anything yet. |

Nice site! But they don't have neither the Fiat ones nor the Opel/BMW ones.
Quest continues!

Nice site! But they don't have neither the Fiat ones nor the Opel/BMW ones. Quest continues! There are Opel / BMW ones listed without a photo so it will be one of those. If you look at the codes you'll see that they used a different model number for the same wheel in a different fitment. I.e your wheel for fiat is listed separately to that for mini. |

Looked up all the codes with missing pics. But none of them were the right ones though.

Have to say they are fiats , but fiat Fitment is 4x98 and not 4x100. That's Opel.

Sorry for my late reply. It's exact an abarth cromodora rim , but I never ever seen one that's split or color. Regular ones are mostly gold in color and 4x98 fitment. Are you sure about the 4x100?

Positively sure! I mounted them on my audi 50 to make sure. Still haven't heard form cromodora. I'll send them anouther message. I'm very interested in their answer.

They definitely made them in 4x100 - the question mark / rarity of these is the fact they're splits rather than one piece.
