Griffith Alloys

[dudereed]

Has anybody fitted aftermarket alloys to griffiths,I have a griff 500 and am looking to fit some 17 or 18" alloys. Just wondered if any horror stories, what size tyres to go for etc.Thanks ..............

There's loads of stuff on here regarding replacing the wheels on Griffs and Chimaeras, try the search facility to see if what you want is on there. Rich...

Rich has got 17" & 18", I have 17" all round, check the profiles, they work fine

Hey Apache - have you still got the gold one? Thought it was a Tamora these days.

I would be suspicious if I was buying a second-hand TVR with non-standard alloys. Alternative TVR alloys are OK (eg Griff 500 alloys on a Chimp) but anything else would make me ask 'why'?

Cause the standard wheels on any model Chimp or Griff, look awfull, don't do that lovevly shape justice, look at profile!

Looks nice Kerniki. Have you thought about a chrome roll-over bar to set it off? Would go well with those wheels and black bodywork, and make you a lot safer. Any plans to take it on track?

I've got a set of Lenso EX 17" all round.
They look awesom. The car used to have the composite OZ wheels, so the new ones have totally modernised the look of the car.

I will try to sort out a picture sometime, but I am about as sharp as a beachball when it comes to the internet.
