I recognise that motor - oh its mine.

I believe the wheels are just box standard 16" TVR alloys.
They look ok but I really want some 18" Spiders or SP's

No - they were the wheels the Cerbera was launched with so were for 4.2s and Speed Sixes (the 4.5 having 17" Racelines).

Then everybody went for spiders whatever the engine.

yes OZ Saturns, actually the best quality standard wheels they fitted to the Cerb (4.2's & S6 cars).
I'm sure they were TVR exclusive with TVR cast into them somehwere. I'll check the set (in perfect condition btw) cluttering up the garage.

They definatley werent exclusive to TVR.They were sold by OZ under the Saturn label.When my brother had his set we put them on to a mates Cerbera to see if there were any slight differences,and there were none at all.

The Saturn wheels were a standard wheel from the OZ range machined to TVR fitment. Not sure how you'd get a set off your brother's BMW (4x100 or 5x120) to fit onto a Cerbera 5x114.3?? Not that it matters

They definatly went on an E36 BMW.I dont know if TVR played around with offsets,but when we married them up they looked fine,and fitted fine in the arches.Altough we never took it out on to the road,so dont know if there was any rubbing.We commented at the time how cheaper they were than TVR considering they were OZ,s wheel.

Some have TVR cast into them others don't.

I have a couple of sets of rims and 2 of the 8 have TVR castings.
