Just got these and have no idea what they are, a freind said that they may be H & Ds, the alloy center bolts in with 8 bolts.
i will do some better photos when i get more time.[/img]


Unfortunately, these are not Hunter and Delbridge as far as I know. I am not sure what these wheels are. The Hunter and Delbridge were magnesium and had four spokes a bit like a Revolution.


My guess with these is early Globe

EDIT---> Oh & i have 2x of these if anyone is interested//???

Looks like a half way between rally masters and sprint masters

With a steel rim I really doubt that they would be Globes. I will see if I can contact the bloke that made Globes, I know him on another forum.

Looking at that wheel dictionary site nearly does my head in. So many wheels I'd like to own. Like those Peg wheels, the ATS, the Cromodoras.

When I was a teen all you could find used was Contessas! :shock:

I had a set of modern looking 5 spoke rims once. Unfortunately no photos. They were 12inch but the offset was a bit wrong and they sat in a little too much compared to the flares I was running at the time. They had a polished rim and grey powdercoating on the wheel. Compared to any thing else I saw at the time (10 to 12 years ago??), they were unique. Apparently they had come in a container from Japan with a bunch of imported Minis and parts. They went very well with the dark candle apple red paint with metallic and the fully deseamed body. Tried to fit them to a more classic style of Mini once and they looked terrible though, way too modern for the classic.

Don't think they are exactly rare, but I haven't seen others the same.

That's how they sit when they are bolted on.

They are golf buggy wheels if I remember correctly.
Not something I'd ideally be running on any of my Minis!
