Source for 9 inch Minilites?
Im looking for a set of 9 inch minilites, replicas are fine. I had talked with a guy at the Monterey Historics who had some on his car but I cant recall where he said he got them.
Thanks!

Follow this link minilitepreis and scroll down the page until you find the 9x15 size. They are genuine minilites albeit they are now aluminium instead of magnesium.

Len, you don't have to import them from Germany.
Minilite Wheels USA Distribution There is a form on this website that you can fill with the data on the wheels you want and they will contact you. Chris |

![]() Chad, from memory you've fitted aussie Superlites, is that right? How do they compare with minilites weight wise?

They are all heavy.
Mine are 15x10's (GTR Superlights- racing version) and they are 20 pounds +/- .5 . So mine are heavy too. The company said they were around 19 pounds, I can assure you they are a little heavier than that. From Minilite: "The 15 x 9, with the 130mm backspace, weighs in at about 21 -22 lbs."
