Thanks guys! :)

I will work through it this afternoon.

Am getting it right that Cheviot is the manufacturer of the "Jellybean" rim?
If so I could delete one post ;)

@MiniMan:
Yeah, right you are :D
It starts to take freaking time :lol:

Cheers,
Jan

PS: I know there was a wheel called "K&N Turbo" - but can't find a pic...

I didnt see minilite mentioned any where! Mabye they are mentioned in the bigger wheels list, I only looked at the 10inch ones. They are real proper and deserve a mention.

About the names Contessa and Contesta. I recall that the advertising for the 10" wheel was Contessa and the 14" was the Contesta. But I can't find any proof these days. :cry:
