Hi Guys,

My first post on this great forum. I'm looking fo a set of Compomotive CX500 wheels for a dry sump 1982 Esprit. Not fussed about condition I know these are as rare as hen's teeth.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards Alex.

Hi Bazza,

The car currently has 5 hole, but seeing Essex Spec cars had 4 stud I imagine most of the Compomotives floating around are 4 stud. I thought I would see what was out there and then worry about changing hubs/adaptors if I could first locate some wheels.

Again any help in that area as well would help.

Hello,

I might have 15" Compomotive wheels, with 4 stud 108PCD.

Kind regards, Arno

I am also looking for a set of these if anyone has any lying around - I will most likely use adaptors to fit to a five stud car - which I assume is possible?

I've been off the forum for a while, but I'm currently selling a set of Compomotive CX500 wheels. They were originally off a track prepped Esprit, and fitted with slicks, so the dimensions are all wrong for a dry sump.

16" diameter
Rears 10" wide
Fronts 8" wide
4 stud centres,

However you could get new barrels for them?
