With TVR taking a while to come up with their new 19" alloy wheel design for the Sagaris, TVR Power have come up with a range of different alloys to replace the standard spider pattern:

You want an opinion? OK. I don't think any of them suit the lines of the Sagaris.

I suggest a wheels called 'Rhine' by a company called 'Niche' - available from here:

www.luxurywheels.co.uk/products.html#

Only about £1250 too.

Here is the company who make them (some of the others look good too)

Seen them recently on blondemoment's car - they're on my shortlist at the moment…



I'll probably end up going down this route (or all out anthracites). But just wanted to gauge reaction on the new offerings by TVR Power

Nubbin had his alloys refurbed with a similar finish.

Yeah, and since he ran over a large rock 4 days ago, he needs a new tyre (split) and the rim needs repainting AGAIN!!

Here they are in happier, less troubled times:-

Those wheels aren't done any justice until you see them in the flesh - but I hope these help!





p.s. Far less cleaning!!

I noticed that the Tuscan 2 Convertable at Goodwood had chrome effect alloys, weren't dark though.

Exquisite taste!!! Those Romas don't look half bad either, but I really like the ones you recommended. If I ever get a Sagaris, that's what I will be putting on it.

The Black Chrome Spiders look superb. My Sagaris is in build at the moment and I'd like very much for it to emerge wearing these rather than the currently speced Anthracites.

Dealer rang Natasha at the factory about them as it mentions above that these are a new factory option. Factory said they weren't and that Silver or Anthracite are currently the only options available. Also mentioned that she'd taken a few calls about this now.

Can anyone clarify? I note from the pics that the standard TVR logo is on one of the Spider legs so it look like an 'official' wheel.

Thanks,
Gary.

These 'black chrome' wheels are from Gatwick TVR. I suggest you have a word with them. And yes they are nice in the flesh.
