Default 18" cup 2 wheels

Anyone know where I can find a set of the aftermarket (made by mille miglia) 18" Cup 2 wheels.

I have had no luck with the Tire Rack or Wheel Enhancement.

Hi Kim,
Long time no talk. I've been on the lamb for some time now from this board.
Only a couple of sets??? I think your holding out on me. Just look around the house a bit more. You must have at least 7 or 8 sets just lying around somewhere

Hi Max,
Good referral there. You almost found what I am looking for.
I would like to stick with painted to keep with the somewhat original feel. And unfortunately I need the narrow body ones. But those pics are the style/size I want.

This may be a tough search.

Max,

Well the great news is you got the web site that still sells them!

The not so great news is after figuring out the conversion rate it comes to around $2,500 + VAT, + shipping from England. Not cheep at all for an after market wheel made by Milla Miglia. Hummmm.....must think about this one.

I'll send them an email to see if they have them in stock. According to the US importer (the Tire Rack) the wheel is no longer made.

Thanks again for the lead Max!

Brad, if you look close to the top of the tyresave page, you will see that the price listed is for a set of FOUR wheels with VAT an UK delivery included.
my currency converter says 780 UK pounds = 1323 US$. not too bad.
i also do not think you would have to pay the VAT on exported goods...not 100%sure.
let us know what you find out.
max

EDIT: re-read the ad and re-did the math-> half of 710 for the front 8.5s= 355
half of 780 for the rear 10s = 390
total 745 pounds= approx 1264 USdollars

$1323 I like the sound of that. That's in the ball park of what I would have expected.

I'm off to recheck the info again.
