My Corse I has Image coffin spokes supplied and sorted by Craig.
Craig sorted the details as I had no idea what i was doing.

And an LB body if I recallOriginally Posted by ProtoTipo
To fit to 4 studs there is a bit of work re-drilling hubs etc.
I think both of those cars are also Corse "i" Alfa engined with the what I will call 1/2 deep dish rear LB coffin spokes - I think the "S" can have the full dish version and with the Honda "i" cradle you need a 3/4 dish which do not exist - Poss custom machined flat deep spoke type from NTM in Italy or fit spacers for the 1/2 dish.
Yes that's right Andrew. 'Like the deep dish wheel on the Alitalia Corse S in the photo from John D. at post #35 earlier on this thread.
However, I think the "1/2 deep dish" wheels, (as you call them), do look good on the Corse 'I' versions. 'Better than the modern wheels that were often fitted to the Corse I's in the past.
I was lucky enough to get a set of Mels 5 stud front hubs. He had had a batch made some time before. The rears will convert using standard Alfa hubs. Craig gave me details.
As I recall he also offered a version of his own coffin spokes to suit Corse I variants. Probably what Steve shows on his car above.
Are they for your Allora John, with Fiat front uprights?
Oh no Chris, sorry, I meant for Frederics car when I did the 5 stud conversion. Don't think he has any left these days.
I think the Allora will be staying 4 stud.
I see?
I didn't know the Corse S used Fiat 132 front stub axles.
