Holy grail wheels

The Courreges line up is full of rare wheels, but out of all of them the ACH seems to be the rarest. Available from 87-89, The ACH was available in mostly smaller sizes. Appears like there were 2 color options, the one seen above and a raw finish. This was also the last wheel designed and sold by Courreges.

PCD: 114.3 4H

Rarity rating: 8.5/10 Although very rare, I'm sure with a large budget and dedication you can get your hands on a set.

PCD: 100 4H

Sizes: 13 6j, 13 5.5J

Rarity rating: 10/10 If a set of these ever pops up for sale, I'm grabbing popcorn. It'll be a slaughter.

The Lepone staff Dego is a wheel with a 1 of a kind design. Appearing in only 1 of our catalogs from 88. This wheel is kind of a mystery. I hope to find out more in the future.

Rarity rating: 9.75/10

The Dome W-1s design comes from the famous Dome Zero concept car. Its a shame the car never made it into production, but at least these wheels did. Appearing in our 81, 82, 83, and 84 catalogs. This ultra rare wheel is truly an awesome piece of automotive history, who doesn't want a wheel that was supposed to appear on an 80s super car?

The Bridgestone Effect, a wheel I've personally dumped hours into researching. But sadly never found anything. appearing in our 87 and 88 catalogs, the Effect had a really short life. "The "Effect" wheel was created for High Soka, based on the Motif of the Good Wave Myth" 

PCD: 114.3 4H/5H

Sizes: 15 6J, 15 6.5J

Rarity rating: 10/10, If you have any info regarding this wheel please reach out.

The Nevada is a personal favorite of mine, the 6 spoke star design is extremely unique compared to most other star wheels of the time. Appearing in our 82, 83, 84 and 85 catalogs. The Nevada had a pretty good run, but i assume didn't sell well due to all the other star wheels available at the time. The sizing options were very diverse, a size was available for everyone.

PCD: 100/110/114.3/120 4H

Sizes: 14 8J, 14 7J, 14 6.5J, 14 6J, 13 5.5J, 10 4J

Rarity rating: 8/10 I almost won a set of these towards the end of 2024 but lost the bidding war, I have seen a couple sets around.

What i consider to be the best tri spoke ever made. the X-Rays design isn't just about looking good, it also serves a purpose. There are several paths for air to enter and escape to keep the brakes cool. Appearing in our 86, 87 and 88 catalogs the X-Ray had a pretty short run sadly.

PCD: 100/114.3 4H

Sizes: 15 7J, 15 6.5J, 15 6J, 14 7J, 14 6.5J, 14 6J

The Thinker-1 appears to be a 1 year only wheel, only appearing in our 86 catalog. The super unique design really stuck out to me, with specs that catered to old Hondas. WIth a lot of digging on the internet, I have stumbled across very old pics of this wheel mounted on cars. Which is a rarity when I'm looking into these ultra rare wheels.

The Beetle S-1 was apart of a 2 wheel line up Superstar sold from 84-87. The other wheel being the Beetle M-1, which was more of a basic mesh design. The Beetle S-1 seems to be a must have for a lot of collectors. I think my favorite part of this wheel, is the small beetle logo stamped on the face of the wheel.

The Meteor M3, available in the early 80s. A unique 6 spoke 3 piece wheel that stood out. Sadly it seems this wheel never got popular, possibly due to its limited sizing. There was a FF variant of this wheel, a less aggressive 1 piece design.

Rarity rating: 9/10

The Devil Japan Flying Max, a well known brand but completely unknown wheel model. only appearing in our 84 catalog, the Flying Max is a pretty mysterious wheel. I hope to see a real example of this wheel one day. definitely a wheel i need to dig more on.

The Devil Japan Shadow Spoke, extremely popular amongst small wheel fans. it seems everyone wants to get their hands on a set. Available in the early 80s, the Shadow Spoke offered so many different sizes and variants. FF variant, 10 inch variant, 3 piece variant, and even a 5 lug variant.

The Hayashi Bomber, one of Hayashi's many desired wheels. Available in the early 80s. There was actually a 5 lug version available as well. Having almost a completely different design. It shared the same gold color, but was a 5 spoke design instead of 6. The 5 lug version is pretty much unobtainable.

The Alpha Soul Racing, only appearing in our 84 catalog. A super cool snowflake style design. Available in gold and silver. Shame these are so rare.

The Southern Ways Glid, quite possibly the best mesh wheel ever created. This waffle was available in the early 80s with good sizing options. I have observed that the 13 and 14 inch wheels share different designs. The wheel seen above is the 14 inch version. The 13 inch is pretty similar, with the middle square spokes being all filled in and the outside rectangles being more square shaped. I definitely prefer the 14 inch version.

Sizes: 13 14 6j-8j

Rarity rating 9/10

The Southern Ways War, another super cool and unique Southern Ways wheel. Available in the early 80s as well, sadly there's not much info around about these. Maybe i haven't dug deep enough. Hope to get more info on these in the future as well as see real examples.

The Bertone Leprotto 1059. Seemingly the rarest wheel Bertone designed. Available from 81-84. The 1059 only had 1 size option. This is the only Bertone wheel that I've never seen a real example of. Even after hours of digging. hope a set of these pops up eventually, really wanna see them on a car.

The Autopista DRY, a favorite directional wheel amongst many. Normally I use the 4 lug version of wheels for this section of the website, but i wanted to use the 5 lug version for the DRY. Mostly due to the fact that most people don't know a 5 lug version exists. Available in the mid 80s, the DRY was offered in silver and white. The transparent center cap stands out as a really unique trait.

The Riverside Pegasus Dish. Riverside had a line of Pegasus wheels seemingly available from 84-87. The dish stood out amongst the line up, as the other wheels were basic designs like mesh or fin. Available in good sizes, its a surprise to me this wheel wasn't more popular.
