Smith UK wheels - Triumph

[sixor8]

On my Triumph Toledo are a set of 'Weller style' wheels that are stamped with the logo SMITH UK on the front.

I don't seem to be able to find if this the manufacturer or not. Searches on the internet return that they may be Wolfrace but perhaps not? The PCD is 4 x 3.75" and they are 13". I'm trying to decide if they are worth fully refurbishing:



The is the logo circled in red:

A Mini owner posted about similar wheels, and seemns to have thought that "Smith UK" made WEeler knock-offs!

Thanks for the link. I was right to think they are Weller 'Style' then

Companies house have a Smith's Wheels of Colchester that were formally known as Wolfrace Wheels UK, which led me the wrong way.

Since 1 damaged rim still went for £16, that has cheered me up discovering they aren't actually Weller....

Back in the Mid 80"s They were made in Willenhall, Westmidlands as i used to go to the factory, i was only around age 12 but remember it well, my sisters boyfriend used to grass track race and they used smith wheels on his mini.
