Re: 13 inch ralle wheels
They are most certainly magnesium Ralle Wheels, which were available in a few different designs.
Not too bad - slightly less than 1500% price increase over the past 48 years lol

Re: 13 inch ralle wheels
You would be able, with some effort, to make them look nice again. Question is wher will one find another pair to make it a complete set????

Re: 13 inch ralle wheels
This is what a different Ralle mag looked like after I had it restored a couple of years ago. Was quite costly, and finding someone these days to weld magnesium can be difficultGERHARD73 wrote:You would be able, with some effort, to make them look nice again.

Re: 13 inch ralle wheels
Yes, 14" but more rounded in the corners though.
