Große Stahl wheels

Hi Keith,

can you ask your question in english?
The german translation isn't so good that we understand what you mean.

Thanks, Sven.

Hello Keith,
no such steel wheels aren`t standart at any Trabants.
You can search for an company who build you some wheels out of your originals...
or you use some wheel adapters....
or you can put golf MK1 brakes in your Trabant and than you can use all VW wheels...

At your rearaxle you can also put the brakes from a Trabant 1.1... ( you can also use the VW wheels with it )

But the idea with the adapters is the cheapest and the best one. So you can also use aluminumwheels on your Trabant.

Hope i could helped you and you also could understand my english

Sind aber nicht billig, reichen 4 oder müssen es 5 sein ?

I mean the number of the wheels. You need 4 rims or it must be 5 rims?

Do you know what the shipping would cost?

I could quantity 4 / 5.5. rims pass

i would ja helpen...but my english is not the yellow from the egg:(

Good day! How is life across the channel?

What are you looking for? Your Trabant is adressing a historic race for oldtimers next year and you need some steel or alloy "racing" wheels?
But you'll need original wheels/rims (4x160). Problem is, that there are not that many original steel/alu wheels/rims that would fit on the Trabant without using
adapter-rings. There are some versions, but the do not come cheap nowadays. My Wartburg 353 Tourist has14" Irmscher Alloys with 4x160 1, but they might not fit inside the Trabi's mudguards/suspension. A cheaper (Don't know if it's legal in England or does pass the MOT) option is using adapter-rings and take VW/Opel/Fiat wheels.

You could search for them at ebay or maybe www.omoma.de
