Anyone heard of these rims

Hi guys

I am wondering if anyone has heard of Fitapoldi rims (not sure of the spelling). Please let me know where I can see a picture of one.

Thanks for your time! Kerry

Rims were named after Emerson Fitapaldi of CART racing. Don't know if they are manufactured at this time. They made numerous styles, chrome,painted etc.....Here's one http://gallery.consumerreview.com/ca...files/golf.asp

I remember these from way back in the day... are they heavy?? I saw some Fittipaldi Force rims that looked decent for around $200 a piece

I am not sure which ones they are. I was just told "I have a friend of a friend, etc who might want to sell his" I haven't seen them yet.
I hope to get in touch with him soon.

Thanks for the replies, Kerry
