Guest Mike_in_CO Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 I have a 1984 245, and found some 940 rims (8Jx15x25) that I'd like to install, but not sure that it would work. Any ideas? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martynj Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 They will definitely fit. I have the 5 spoke Hydras from a 940 turbo on my 240 and they look pretty sweet and there are no issues. All 240, 740 and 940 rims are interchangeable.

Except some 240 wheels don't fit the 7/9, because of the brakes, iirc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Three Fat Tigers Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 240 wheels are 20mm offset, so the 25mm 940 wheels will sit 5mm further inboard, but otherwise they will work just fine. You could run some 10-15mm spacers on the rear to make it look a little better back there.

Three Fat Tigers Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 i can't tell if you set that picture up, or if you've just really got a stiffy for hydras Years ago now, those photos were of me taking a bed and a set of hydras w/new tires that I bought for my brother, I drove down to ATL to help him move into a new place, I drove back on his original set of omega wheels, which I still have if anyone wants those, they will go cheap. I only have Hydras on my 940, I have a set of Canistos that I will mount instead, hopefully soon. I've since got him another set of wheels for the 760T: More on that here: http://forums.turbobricks.com/showpost.php?p=1003164&postcount=55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbenne Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Hi, I'm interested in the Omega rims for my 240 wagon. If you still have them, what are you asking? I'm in east Tennessee.
