Yeah, know what you mean, bit like the old four spoke "Revolutions", once they get above 13" they really need five spokes to look "right"

Actually that's a lie, Compomotive SMs are the way to go on an M series car, like GAjon

bow Been running 5-spoke Revolutions on my 1600M since the early 80's so I'm biased, but they look totally wrong on my Vixen, thats on Compomotive MLs. Geoff

FHs aren't bad, but SMs are definitely the ones too have. I reckon 16s would be about right to get decent modern rubber and not look too out of proportion, but 15s would be ok.

Maybe it's a living in the south thing. If you live south of Coventry = FHs, live north of Coventry SMs!!

I'd agree about the 5 spoke Revolutions for a Taimar, but in black with the shiny rim. cool

Can't find any decent pics of SMs in 15" or bigger, GAjon probably has some!, but image wheels do a 'copy'

Ok, here's a proper one, I know this doesn't show them on the car proper, but I cant find many pictures where the car isn't moving.
But, the reason I chose this pic is the rears are the origonal Compomotives the fronts are the ones I had made to order by Image after my RTA.

I bought a set of 7x16 Konig Rewinds for my Taimar (minilite type wheel) from these guys a few years back.

Just noticed that they now sell a 7x15 slotmag type wheel as well
