Just wondering if anyone has seen any of these wheels before? They are only set we have seen (and own). If anyone has let us know as we wouldnt mind another set. They are made in England and are 10x6.

They are unuasual alright. Apparently they were imported to Sydney in the 70's. They need a good clean up and hopefully soon will go onto one of our cars.

Thanks for the link to the photo. The only place we have seen a pic of them is in one of Vizards books. But sureley there must be some more in Australia?

Sorry,
No can do. Never seen them before. Nice looking rim though.
Just on a side thought. Was recently up at Hamilton Island and there are golf carts there with aftermarket alloy rims. Awesome looking 10" rims in alloy, or 3 piece or deep dish chromies. Stud pattern looks small like mini and they are about 7 inch wide. There was one there done up to look like a ferrari, badged, retrimmed fat rims etc. Very cool.

haha steve, you cant have all the best looking wheels for your mini,,,, you need to get another one atleast to fit them too...

I think that you could have these wheels from uk ebay at your door step for around $600-700 :shock:

if they go for 100p price.
