Dino is the manufacturer

Ted,
Is Dino the manufacturer for the older classic wheels?
BERTRAM BOY :D :D :D

It turns out the old wheels ie) pre2002 are 5 bolt grant wheels. The Brand New 22 Classics are using Dino wheels, which are 6 bolts.

I believe that RAID makes the dino wheels now. http://www.raid-rdi.com/e/fs_raid-rdi.htm

If you are looking for a place to buy them they were in my last Tuning Zubehor catalog. http://www.tuningzubehor.com/

Zubehor's site seems to be down right now, but if memory serves they have a catalogue request link on their page. I ordered some MOMO seats from them and they provided great service and prompt shipping.

What year? The really old white-rim wheels have the 3-bolt pattern and were made by Covico.

My last post relates to 1998 and up :D

If you just need a cover http://www.bavarianautosport.com/shop.asp(search for "wsa so"). They are available special order in custom sizes and colors (including white and 2 tone)
I installed one on the 22 Classic 2 years ago it's holding up great. I also installed them on all my cars and truck. Installation time is a couple of hours. http://www.donzi.net/photos/rryan10gps.jpg

Update. All the above info holds true except...it seems they are still from time to time using Grant steering wheels on classics even some of the new ones. I keep getting New Info :D

Thanx for everyone’s help

Okay... here it is. This is the wheel you get from California Marine. If you are looking for closest to original for the earlier Donzi's this is it. It is not that cheap $150US plus shipping, but it is nice. There are others that are close http://www.mooneyes.com/Grant.html, but not the same. The holes in the spokes are all the same size and the grip isn't at thick. Still very nice, but not the same. --Brad

Brad - Nice! That wheel looks damn close to the original. Are the spokes chrome plated bronze or some other non-magnetic material?

Also, I like it when the spokes are equal distance apart when used on a hydraulic steering system. On hydraulic systems, the wheel never returns to the same straight ahead position.
