Ultra-rare vintage FAGIX 456 3pc Racing wheels, 15x8.5 & 15x10.5, refinished

[luke318is]

Hi ladies

For sale:

*drumroll*

An Ultra-rare set of Fagix 456 3-piece lightweight racing wheels

This is the only set for sale in the world (believe me I've checked)

A little info: Fagix was a French company that made custom wheels for Renault and Alpine racing cars (Alpinault)
Also they made wheels that were used in the Paris-Dakar rallys (Peugeot T16, Porsche 959, Landrovers, etc)
Since then they've been taken over by Gotti, which doesn't exist anymore aswell

as you can see in the following links, I've been researching them, and nobody really knows anything about these wheels:

after trying all the links in English I google-translated some French forums and found the info I needed :tongue:

apparently these wheels were legendary in the 70's/80's, and to this day some people swear by them

enough chit-chat, let's get down to business...

Specs:

PCD 4x100

8.5x15 ET35
10.5x15 ET 0

now I can ask some outrageous price for these wheels, but I'll keep it civil

Price:
now now $1900 shipped by USPS (tracking&insured)
for DHL economy or EMS add $225

+ paypal fees if applicable

No tires! they're just in the pics to show off the stretchola :D
(yeah, nice bruise huh?)

ps, the outer lips are rolled inward for extra strength and rigidity, I've never seen that before on any other wheel

and trust me, I've seen a lot

also these wheels are around 25 yrs old

found out Fagix S.A.R.L. closed shop in '90
