What wheels are these
hi guys
hope you can help
can you ID these wheels?
The only leads i have so far are these..
They’re Rial GT-D1’s
From Rial Press office Germany
Only made for in 4x108 for Fords they celebrate the blue oval’s very first win in a 24-hour race…. GT stands for the class (GT40 was the car) – D stands for Daytona (the race), and the 1 is the number on the GT40 driven by Ken Miles and another bloke (who I can’t remember) in the race. They’re about as rare as it gets.
The wheels are away being repaired and a mate of the guy whos sorting them claims he also has a set and they were made for Rial and distrabuted through wolfrace. He wanted to swap his mint set of white ones for my "bashed up" set plus some money. I didnt take the offer.

They were indeed RIAL, but were distributed by Ripspeed, and Autobahn, as it was myself that brought them into the country when working for Autobahn.
There are a lot rarer wheels like DS optics, as I bought a set direct from the factory when I used to go there every week, had cash account.

I'm 99% sure I brought back around 10 sets of these or very very similar and sure they went to ripspeed.
Sorry can't remember numbers etc, I was too tired, doing 1850 miles between 5pm sunday and 11am tuesday morning, and that's got two boat trips in between, and france germany belgium holland, in a diesel transit.
Just email a piccie to rial they are very helpful, I also went to Brabus, BBS, D&W(essen) to name a few, crap money though £120 a trip.
