So, I'm pimping my garage and I want to put my 18" Winter Wheels on the wall.
Anybody seen or got ant good racks?

I have seen a couple on the web but they look a bit weak..

I use ladder hooks from B&Q for mine. No problem with the weight.

Ah, great idea! Thanks.
I think I have some in a box but I just painted the floor. Will have a look later.

That is a proper PH prioritising, ladder hooks for wheels and ladder on the floor underneath. Like it

No affiliation, just trying to help, etc, etc.

If you're pimping your garage maybe an arrangement like this would suit giving additional storage and worktop space too.

Can't wait for the wife to want to move so I can get a garage to pimp!

Actually, if you look closely, you can just see that the ladder is hanging off the floor on another pair of hooks.

But the wheels take priority as you rightly point out biggrin

No garage should ever be that clean and tidy, not the garage of someone who knows their way round a socket set !

I have one wheel on my wall, well garage door, a 1990 Granada Taxi wheel with a host wrapped round it.

I had seen that unit but think it is a bit too fancy. I am just doing the basic garage pimp for now and then when the two doors have been exchanged for a big roller one, I will start the main "Pimp".

Think I will just get four or eight big hooks.
Will follow up with a picture once the "Wheel Specialist" has done his work.

Thanks for this also - I want to display the wheels a bit so think they will be best on the wall on hooks
