Anyone got any pictures of them on a Mk1 Tuscan? Or are they made for the Mk2? Never really seen any pictures of them on cars or am i blind and been living in a box? boxedin

Sorry, no pics, but i have seen them fitted on a mk 1 at TVR power. Not to my taste, but they do fill out the wheels arches nicely.

Agree, too max power. There is no substitute in terms of looks for the spiders.

Just thinking of alternatives due to the softness of the Spiders. They always buckle apparently? Im not really too keen on the Speed 12 design...

its strange no other alloys fit with the tuscans curves the spiders complement the car so well. every time i see a tuscan with another alloy design i feel sorry for it.

But the Spiders are scrap, because they are weak as butter!

I am also looking for others!

I had 16"'s on my first Tuscan which I thought looked terrible.
The SP 12's were a big improvement in my opinion.





which I transfered to my Mk2.



I dont like the "fat" look of the spiders against the lighter look of the SP12's but its all down to personal taste at the end of the day.

I realise I'm in the minority here, but I like the RG wheels. It would be like a full size Hotwheels toy driving

I agree, I love the look of the spiders and haven't seen any others I prefer. Also agree they're pretty weak - Very slightly dinged n/s front on Sat whilst avoiding some inconsiderate tcensoredt in a 5 series who decided his lane wasn't wide enough so he was going to use some of mine! furious Result is slight 'lump' in the rim rather than a scuff. Nothing too serious I hope but may require a trip to myalloys.co.uk to have it fixed

HaHa..... Its idea was probably not to let me drive !!!



Note that the SP12's survived this little misshap unscathed.
