Vega's are one of 3 6j for the 400 series, others being Versa/vesa and Taurus!
Vegas, however, look awesome!

I know where to find a single brand new Vega. I'm tempted...
Agreed that it looks very 'Borbet'!

Lukittava pyöränmutterisarja = Lock bolts (english is much more efficient language
)
It also says under it that Volvo alloy wheels are wanted and recommends to lock your wheels, also it says that it won't change wheel balancing, includes two special keys
Prices are FIM that we used before Euro, today wheels costs around same but in euro, thing is FIM was almost 6 times lower value than Euro
It says that Pollux has been standard in 440GLT and 480 Turbo.
All those tire sizes are recommendations.

Steve... good point, I forgot that!
My 480T came on Pollux, think they changed later to Taurus, but don't know when or how it worked!
