I have a set too on my deluxe. Living in hope that it will become fashionable one day. |

As common as dirt in the 70s. Still common now, just not as popular as the Contessas. IMHO they will only ever be fashionable on Valiants, but I had two sets on my first two Clubbies and they looked the part. |

Looks good. Notice you dont have the centre bearing covers. I found one cover on the side of the road several years ago (I think they're Chevell or something like that), but have not been able to locate more. Any ideas? |

Not rare and less desirable than contessa's, IMO. I like them. I wonder what they weigh compared to a contessa? Do they have the same width and offset as a non-LS contessa? |

i've got some, they are very light. imo they only suit clubmans, they're very 70's muscle. |
