Hi People,

At last, after six months getting repaired I will soon be getting my beloved Griff 4.3 back :-)

However, the rubbish non-standard wheels, that the previous owner put on, cannot be replaced ( what a shame!!! )

Sooo, I'm after ideas/pics/websites of Griff's with non-standard wheels....and websites of good dealers.

I don't want the 500 wheels or the Spyder wheel upgrade. Apart from that I'm open to ideas.

God it's like trying to pick a pair of shoes for somebody else......

They would be BK299s, and they probably are a bugger to keep clean I've got Racelines on mine - see RichBs profile for how good they can look on a Griff - if you're buying wheels, be aware of the offsets required - I think RichB goes into this on his website listed in his profile.
I bought my wheels secondhandfrom a crashed Griff, so I knew they'd fit OK

When I first came to PH Im sure I saw a pic of a Griff with nice big 5 spoke 3 piece deep dish alloys.

Anyone got the pic? It looked great.

Motion TVR - they've responded to your query DustyC by putting them into the PH Classifieds under TVR Parts.

Hmm,

The Racelines look really good.....

Do you chaps know of good dealers for these, as I don't seem to be able to find any on Google.

Also, what sizes are those...I was hoping to put 16 on the front and 17 on the back....

Cheers,

Martin

Bloody hell! I could buy another car for that price!

Good idea starting Motion TVR but it seems that most TVR owners prefer the original wheels on their cars.
