I have a 74 z1 and it came with melber mags made in italy but cannot find too much info on them.Has anyone any info on these?they sure are light and I think they might be magnesium.I need new wheel bearings and wanted to make sure I ordered the correct ones.If anyone can help me out I would really appreciate it,thanks

Do you have a bearing shop by you? I'd pop them out and take them there........they should be able to match them up easily.
