Gotti wheels aren't rivited. And they have only been used on the finest exotic, collector, and high-end GT cars since being invented in the 70's. Drive at your own risk? Exactly right when it has been well engineered. And please don't compare them with the infamous "Ultra" wheels.

Thanks Richard.
Peter: I've made this offer many times, you and everyone else are welcome to send your pictures to me ( info@panterainternational.com ) if you're finding it a challenge to post them.
This will no longer be an issue when we transition to the new HOOP.LA forum platform.

Is there enough space for these wheels in a narow body?
My car YOD 772K is a standard (Narrow) bodied car with the factory flares riveted on the body.
The edges of the wings/fenders have been folded upwards so the wheels/tyres clear, on both front and back wings so I think the answer to your question is Yes they will.

I thought about cars without the riveted flares.
Hi Peter, your car looks great. I like the gold color. Were the wheels originally gold from the factory?
René ... yes tires "fit" within the wheel houses and fender arches of a narrow body without rubbing; even without the riveted flares.
Those wheels were originally designed for 255mm tires (H60 Arrivas), but were also used for the 285mm P7s. Guys use 295mm tires today, and some use 305mm. The wheel's offset was good for the 255mm tire, and is progressively less and less ideal as the tires get wider.
Here's an example below.

Hello George, the wheels were silver from the factory, but I always liked the Gold coloured wheels on the Lamborghini Miura, so copied them.
Not "as original" but I like them, and they sort of go with the lettering somehow.
