COMPOMOTIVE MO ALLOY WHEELS - any good ?

Post by karldavies »

Anyone know if the compomotive mo alloys are decent or not.

Are they a lightweight alloy?

Any good for the track?

Thanks in advance

Compomotive are motorsport oriented wheels mate, they don't tend to be the lightest, but they are as strong as bell metal :thumleft:

Tend to be quite popular on the rally scene if i recall correctly.

IMO they would be a safe bet for the track 8)

I used to have them on my old Renault 21turbo, not the lightest but unbelievably strong, hit a big pothole once with them, wrecked the tyre but didn't cause any damage at all to the alloy.

thanks for the replies people.i'll look into getting them then.i've completely stripped the car so the odd couple of kg's isn't going to make much difference.they are going to be lighter than whats on there at the mo. Cheers

A great wheel, here's my staggered MO's I use for winter wheels.

17x8/17x7 ET35, they look better without the centre caps though.
