    Fitting a Racemark Wheel - what hub?

    I have a Racemark wheel. I was going to fit it while getting the original wheel recovered.

    I think I need a nardi hub to fit it - is that correct? Is it any Nardi hub or one in particular I need?

    Thanks

    Racemark made their own hubs to fit the 911.

    There is a gentleman here selling a Racemark wheel with a Racemark hub. You might get lucky!

    Racemark steering wheels and hubs use the same hole pattern as Nardi. However, the bolts used in the Racemark's (and Raid) are M6 whereas Nardi wheels use an M5 bolts. If you have a Nardi hub or a generic aftermarket hub you can use M5 bolts, but the countersunk holes in your Racemark wheel are bigger to accept the M6 bolt so it won't be flush with the surface of the wheel. It works ok though. You can also tap your hub and increase the holes for M6 bolts.
