Jesus... what a bunch of threadjackers! eekbiggrin

I have the wheels already but they need to be certified by our TUV/(MOT), which is why I was asking for some background. Probably others are looking for the same info, as the RL is a quite popular wheel - though not a lot on info on the internet.

Well thats what I have as a starting point, feel free to add/amend:

- Raceline RL was standard wheel on TVR Cerbera 4.5
- Produced by "Two Gates Wheels Ltd." in Telford, England
- Production time somewhat between 1996-2003

From what I heard, the Raceline production at Two Gates Wheels was purchased by the Italian company "Speedline" in 2001, but was stopped shortly after anyway. Not sure about this however.

Cheers!

(I too should apologise for the hijack!!)

Just noticed this thread nosing over from the Grif forum. I purchased a set of (gold) RL7s a while back as track day wheels for my Grif after I carried out a 5 stud conversion. Spent quite a bit on refurbing and getting them re-powdercoated.

Would be welcome a sensible offer if someone would like to make one, drop me a PM.

Nice try, but.... Nope! tongue out

I think those wheels look great... can't wait to get them on the car. Also playing with the idea for a while now to get them powdercoated. Not sure about the colour though as it should match the rest of the car (Red Bull Blue outside / Magnolia, Prussian Blue inside)
