Hi, could anybody tell me what the PCD of the "Spider" type seven spoke wheels are that I see fitted to most of the modern TVR's?
Also what sizes are they available in and what offsets etc and do they ever come up secondhand or are they available at a reasonable price new?

Many Thanks
Gareth

you can fit TVR's 18" spiders to Griff/Chims.(see profile) Find yourself a good engineer to make the 5 stud hubs, change your shocks and your away. Check out www.tvrcarparts.com to order spiders or any other tvr wheel. They will also give you advice on settings etc. zz

What do your insurers make of fitting "home made" hubs? (I know they're not exactly home made, but neither are they a tried and tested production part.)
