Very nice Should suit the car well

[mongoose]

I just thought they seem a good idea.I love the original oz split rims,but with 15" rubber becoming difficult to get hold of,i was put off getting some.I think these are a very good likeness to the oz rims,has anyone got a pic of the oz's to compare?

[pasco]

I would love a set of them !!!

They look the puppies nuts!!!

How much Mike?

[petros]

Correct Pasco, but, on another thread, in another Galaxy, Mongoose asked for a picture of my new wheels once they were fitted !!!

[petros]

Mongoose, just so you know, Image are now making the new reverse rim wheels, no lip on the rim, like mine, look better and the centres look bigger.

Has somebody knicked your wheels then Mike??

They were pretty slow ones anyway....

[pasco]

[pasco]

What would you need to do to convert to five stud Mongoose ?

Is that a costly job ?

Still like the classic looks of the oz style wheels and i presume they are four stud?

Hi Mongoose,

I considered these Compomotive wheels (pic on this thread www.pistonheads.co.uk/gassing/topic.asp?t=259735&f=9&h=0)

They are about £600 a set - We will have a chat about them when we next speak.

Regards,
Lig.

They might not be the fastest,but they are still much faster than shanks's pony


Pasco,i think you need the 5 stud hubs,and thats about it,if you want to fit the spiders?Has anyone on here done this conversion without buying the kit from TVR?


Lig,i'd be grateful for any info on wheels at the mo thanks.I'm due new tyres before we go to MonSpa(end of May),so i have to make my mind up in the next few weeks

Drop an email to Hans Daalhuizen [[e-mail]], he supplied my kit last september.

It costs around 1850 Euro. The kit consisted of:
4 machined used hubs drilled to Spider PCD with new standard wheelstuds
4 new wheel bearing kits
FRONT BIG BRAKE conversion 300 x 28 vented discs drilled and grooved with mounting bells/ brackets and used TVR Tuscan 4 pot calipers (beside calipers all brake parts are new)
NEW rear discs drilled and mountingface redrilled to Spider PCD.
4 very clean and good used Spider wheels (silver)

I fitted them last month and can highly recommend the kit.
