15" lattice wheel?

[James MK]

Does anyone have one going spare? Had mine balanced today and found one of them isn't very round any more.

Hi James

I think I may have a spare 15" lattice with a tyre on it.

I will check my wheels over the next couple of days.

That wold be great, with or without the tyre. I just need a straight one!

Much appreciated.

Looks like this guy has a set that look very similar with the correct offset although I think the stud diameter may be wrong

Also another set that look like 350SE wheels to me and they have the correct stud diameter (I think)

The 'OZ MSW' ET23 set he has are very similar to what's on my car but I still don't think they're exactly the same, even though the type number 1911 is the same - I'm sure mine are 1911D not B. There's something about them that doesn't look 'right', can't work it out. Odd because everything else (offset etc.) is correct (mine are MSW not Mahle, BBS or OZ).

None of those wheels are anything like the 350SE style, though.

You're right as always Ian.

The spokes are squared off where as the TVR ones are rounded

Hmmm, I took another look at the various wheel pics and I'd have to say that the MSW's for sale are the same as those on the Wedge: it looks as though the sale ones have had the 'spoke' surface skimmed ('diamond cut') on a lathe which has given them the 'square' look... similar to the treatment of the 350SE style wheels.
