TUCK3r,,, they look great,,, but i was looking at them & think that there was something wrong,,, i couldn`t put my finger on it for a while , but i worked it out

The factory paint scheme there is a small/thin silver line around the square holes which yours don`t have

sorry to be picky but it just caught my eye that they just wern`t quite right :-)

i am pick hey? :-)

nice job tho

At a recent swap meet I saw a bloke selling a template for painting HQ Monaro wheels. It makes masking and painting easy.
Maybe some clever bugger should do the same for the Leyland Mini S wheels?

but i really dont think they are that desirable type of rim are they? i wanted them for originality of the car but have never really seen them on many clubmans at all .

HQ Monaro wheels were never desirable but now they are coming out from under the house in the name of originality.
I guess the same thing will happen with Mini S wheels.
