Does anyone have experience about a setup like in this Longchamp: http://www.qv500.com/detomasoregistrylong2089.php
To me those wheels fill up the arches nicer that the original wheels. Wonder what size they are (Wheels/tires)?

If I recall correctly they are Lancia Scorpion/Fiat X1/9 lights. Not a Factory set up..
Jani,
I've seen other 'Champs with Pantera wheels. Those look like the 15 x 8 versions. The Longchamp GTS had the Pantera wheels mounted as oem equipment, 15 x 8 front, 15 x 10 rear. Check out the picture below.
I think the 'Champ in your link is the first 'Champ I've seen with the bumpers removed, I like the look. The car needs to be lowered, its sitting too high on the suspension.
I love the Longchamp, I would like to own one some day.

What fuels my curiosity about this matter is how wide pantera wheels can you put on a stock body Longchamp. The GTS has the fender alterations and higher ride height(or at least it appears so) than the normal one. I am currently in process of creating a Longchamp Prototipo clone out of my car, but I must say that I´ve always liked the Pantera wheel design more than the Longchamp/Deauville one.
I think that an 8jx15 wheel is as wide as you can go. From experience I can tell that a 235/60/15 tyre is abou the max without rubbing the inner and outer fenders. From what I recall when I inspected the yellow longchamp it had 225/65 tyres front and rear.
