Has anyone seen a set for the Countach sold (I want a set)? On the Jalpa, I prefer the original Bravos, they don't make the car look like a skate board, but the rear tires are the sore spot. I bought a pair of Yokohammas for mine for $600 from a guy that was in England (and had gotten them for his Pantera). At the time I thought I paid too much, but not now. (The tire I have matched the closest to the 285/40/15 is 275/50/15 which is plentiful. It should interchange but not be exact. As a point of interest, when I got my Jalpa, the guy had put 345/35/15 (like a Countach) tires on it. It looked really cool, but with 2 people in it it would rub the fender well over a mild bump. If you installed some spacers in the coils and tinkered with it , you probably could get it to work.

Hi Early Cat,

Do you mean the original telephone dial wheels? I thought those were the ones at Eurospares.

Where did you get your wheels?

Mine are original to the car, Not the eurospare version.

your car is perfect ! freaking love it !

Thanks! That picture is when it was delivered from Boston. The picture did'nt size too well, but oh well anyways. The tires on it in that picture are 345/35/15's.

if this deal goes thru with this Jalpa i am looking at i am going to get the 17 inch Compomotives. i do not want to deal with the tire issues with the Bravo repos.

the later Jalpas had Bravo 5 hole wheels installed by Lamborghini as they had the wheels left over from the Silhouette and they wanted to get rid of the wheels from inventory as the Jalpa production was coming to a end.

i think it was a great move as the Jalpa wheels look too much like Corvette wheels from the 90's and some people think the car is a vette based kit car!

the Bravos scream "Lamborghini" to me. the OZ wheels , not so much ....

EarlyCat sorry for my PM, bugging you about tire sizes, i re read this thread and found the answers. got to love the close knit community here.

i am trying to maintain the profile and width of the Bravo wheels with a set of 17 from Compomotive. i have noticed that the OZ Racing wheels look too narrow on the Jalpa versus the Bravos. i will try to attach pics to show what i mean.

pics to show the width of Bravos versus OZ 16's
