Wink Gp A Speediness on Cosworth.

Does anyone know if Gp A Speediness from an RS200 will fit on to a 2WD Saph without any modifications ?

Will it need inserts, special wheel nuts, or change of hubs ?

Thanks a lot

What size / offset are they?

You would need a set of conversion nuts around £50 on ebay come with a sleeve to sit inside the steel insert on the Grp A wheels. The insert is to prevent ovalisation.

If you are talking about three piece rims the offset is wrong the centres need machining, plus you will need group A wheel studs and nuts.
I you have some standard width un-machined centres I would be interested in a swap.
I you know of any split rims for sale or if you have some for sale, message me.
If you have the one piece original wheels they will not fit over the front brakes and the offset is also wrong.

Cheers, yes they are the single piece 16 X 8 style.

Surprised this size don't fit over standard callers.

i picked these up a few week ago ,unfortunatley only 2 of them though .

no markings bar the ford logo and one has 8x16 on it .

both mags i would say going by the weight of them.

i have seen pics of them on rs200 cars but not sure if they are specific or are just wrorks wheels from the time of sierras/escorts
