Yes, had a set on my old Griff. I needed 10mm spaces at the front though as it had Tuscan brakes fitted.

I'm watching those on Ebay as well. Think they are a little overpriced (for a TVR owner) though - crap tyres in the wrong sizes and in need of a re-furb.

That's loads of money, they normally go for 500 with a set of tyres on them...

Would the wall height look correct at these sizes?

There were a very nice set in the TVR classifieds for £400 ,no one even bothered replying .

Raceboy has them on his car ,they could do with a 10mm spacer on the front .
