Don't think they are any lighter but are much stronger and better made than spiders.

Thats right!!Thought I had seen them before.
Out of all the different wheels I have seen on Tvr's recently those are my favorite by far,really suit the "Transformer style" of the Sagaris.

Yes the 19" do fit, i had them on my T350t before a part ex'd it. Tyres for the Saggy are 255-30-19, which is a 10mm increase on the overall dia of the tyre. Effcetively all you are doing is replacing rubber in the middel of the tyre with more metal.

The wheel is the Jordan, which was the new alloy that TVR were trialing before things went pear shaped. I believe they had 10 sets in the factory for evaluation? Same design as the 18" on the black press car or the ones offered by TVR Power.

Now....I don't really like the Sag but, that is a sorted looking car and hard to believe it came from a derelict shed in Blackpool. Bloody sad it had to end

You sure that extra 10mm (5mm on diameter) will not cause front tyres to hit the underside of front wing of sagaris on hard cornering?
