Sixto, (thanks for replying)

I have seen some of the OEM 8 hole wheels on various 126ers from time to time, so I guess they do fit, but I have no idea about the offset, spacers and so on. These are 16" wheels by the way that I am looking for, and I assume that is what those 8 hole wheels are.

It's been a "someday" project to either find a set of these (nearest junkyards to me are in Reno and Sacramento) or try and have the existing fake Lorinser no name knockoffs rechromed (if they can be saved- they were good 10 yrs ago but now pretty pitted, kerbed and rusty). When in good shape they didn't look too bad.

I am still wondering what to do. I would definately want to "plug and play" with a decent set of four, lugnuts, center caps and everything all included, and not a set needing to be restored.

I'm not keen on the the six hole setup, for my car, or even sure it would fit, but would like to see the pictures of them here anyhow.

I have been putting this off for years, but really need to address this issue.

Thx

Jim
