Cosmic Wheels 13x5.5, 4x4.25 pattern

[jrsnell]

I have a set of pretty decent vintage Cosmic rims that I am unable to use on my Lotus Seven restoration project. I'm offering them up for sale here because they are a Ford bolt pattern versus other 4" or 3.75" little british car patterns.

They are 13x5.5 and they say 18mm inset on the rims.

If there's any interest at all, let me know what's a reasonable asking price as I have zero experience selling wheels.

I have a good 681F that's going back in the car. Thanks for the offer though.

As to the wheels, I appreciate your input. I haven't seen much out there about these wheels and had no idea where to begin.

Thanks again.

I ship wheels in a U-haul dish barrel. Works great!

Per chance do you know the weight of the bare rim?

I'm sorry, I do not. I am taking the tires off in a week or so and I could weigh one then.

Tom, as promised... took the tires off and weighed a rim. On my not so exact scale, the weight comes in at 9.7 lbs. Hope this helps.
