Try your local TVR dealer I was very pleased with the price I got about £160 per wheel. 18" original cerbera wheels then the price of the tyres on top.

Mine were £145 per wheel, £170 x 2, £146 x 2 for tyres, plus about £68.00 for wheel nuts, centre caps and end stops. All plus vat and labour from dream Machines in Heathfield, Sussex.

TMS were £115 each for the new 18" spiders, for a full set,inc vat, So2's,new wheel nuts, steering rack spacers, and TVR centre caps £1200 inc vat (BARGAIN).

Word of warning though you need the steering rack mod to stop rub on full lock - and you need adjustable shocks on the rear or the wheels WILL fowl the bodywork with a boot full, or over a compression bump!!

It's worth trying to get your disc centre's painted as well if you go for the spider 18 inch alloys as the older ones tend to rust in the centre sections and look shite



However the 18inch wheels look brings any older Cerbera, bang up to date

Seems to be big differences in what dealers are charging for these wheels. I though i was getting a bargain at around £1500 inc compared to Fernhurst who quoted me £1900 plus vat!!! Must say that wheels do transform the look of my car but the turning circle is really shite now as full lock is seriously reduced thanks to the spacers!

What tyres are best for 18" wheels?? Have just bought a Cerbie and it has 18" wheels but forgot to look at the tyre make??

Any advice appreciated

Thanks
