Afternoon all.

I have a set of early Sag wheels on my Cerb, which I had always assumed where Team Dynamics, as that was the centre caps they came with, but I've just been on the phone to TD to order new centre caps for them to tell me the wheels aren't TD wheels (although similar to the TD Jade Rs). Somebody enlighten me please.

Bizarrely tongue out they look exactly the same as the Powers Performance Wheels for the Sagaris.

No, they are slightly different (there is a 'kink' on the spokes towards the centre wheel cap) STR8SIX had a set up for sale a few weeks back, they may be able to help..

No, they are the Jade R - there is no other wheel I know of. Exactly the same as mine - want to try one of my centre caps?

They look identical to the Jade Rs I had on mine.

They look like Jordan on the Rimstock website.
Definitely not Jade-R

Why don't you just get a TVR badge to go over the existing caps?

Cheers.

The Jade R is definitely different, has an inner ridge.



Have no centre caps to put the badges on! hehe....anyway, new ones have turned up from TD but with a flatter design so I think I can overlay a TVR badge on top

I think TVR may have moved to the Jade R later, but the wheel Don & I have were the wheels the original Motorshow car had, and limited early Sags. Seem to be as rare as rocking horse sheet.

These were the original Jade R which was then replaced with the smoother shaped spoke version, glad you are sorted out though.When I had them many years back I found adhesive badges in the correct diameter and overlaid them on the Team Dynamics ones.

I wanted a set for my Sag when I bought it 7 years ago but none of the old dealers could get their hands on them. I eventually tracked the supplier down - vogue international. I bought the last set, I was told the Russian bought about 180 sets (from memory) that seemed to have got lost during the factory closure - maybe they are I the same place as the jigs, moulds etc.

In shadow chrome they look the bees knees IMO

I bought mine from Tim at ACT. He had 5 sets from somewhere.

Mine are needing a refurb sometime soon and shadow chrome is what I was considering.

Yes I purchased those for my Tamora smile

When I researched them I found this link with more information, only 80 sets in 18 inch were ever made and 30 sets in a 19 inch so very rare.

I love the look of the Tam on the black spiders, but will try these to see what they look like.

Cheers,
Jon

Im not sure I'll put TVR badges on the centre caps...I quite like the fact that (certainly within the Cerb forum) I haven't followed everyone else into the SP 12s and not having the TVR badges further sets me apart.

Personally I think they look great on a Cerb (but then again, I would,, wouldn't I hehe )

I have a set of the original Jade R's stored in my shed, buoght them from Vogue international.

Ran them on my T350 for a few hundred miles, then took them off to be powder voted anthracite , never got round to fitting them on my Sag.

Anyone interested?
