I put a set of these on my Chimaera and I think they look absolutely brilliant! I was attracted because I could get the original TVR sizes and just swap over my existing tyres. So I still have 16 inch rears and 15 inch fronts with the correct widths. They will machine the wheels to the offsets the purchaser specifies so again I was able to have the original TVR offsets.They also drill the stud holes to the purchaser's spec so it doesn't matter which hubs you are running.
The only problem I had was that the first set of rear wheels I bought had the stud holes drilled off-centre which gave awful vibration. They readily acknowledged their mistake and I had a replacement set of wheels, properly machined, within 24 hours.
They have been on the car for 9 months now and I am very pleased with them. They carried the car up to 150 mph on the German Autobahn with no problem. I never got beyond 130 mph with my original wheels due to warping and horrendous vibration.

as I'm after another set, so I can run summer (trackday tyres)/winter (road tyres)...... the trackday tyres really don't like these cold damp roads it's like ice skating.
