Why do their needs trump the vintage Mangusta look? I would think they would not care, or it might even be a marketing advantage to claim "original MANGUSTA look".

I could easily adjust the spacing and put my original rear wheels on the front and have the fronts widened to my specific specifications for the rear. This would give me the size I want for a lot less money and risk. That means my originals are also on the car, but I do not have spares.

I think the wheels you are doing should be modified to look like the originals, not the second design that came later as they will look like modern after-market wheels on a Mangusta.

Hi Dick,

I think the wheel certainly looks like a Mangusta wheel, obviously we've had to make our own interpretation because we're making different sizes but a family resemblance is definatey there.

Anyway, things have been moving along nicely and all design work is now complete. Attached are drawings for 7, and 9 x 15's.


Regards

Jonathan
