chimaera front wheel

[martin chappell]

Just taken my chimaera in for MOT this morning but failed on front nearside wheel which is slightly buckled,didn't detect a thing whilst driving but there is definitely some distortion of the wheel. Can only think of a pot hole that I hit a couple of weeks ago.Can anyone help me with a replacement as I have tried TMS Melton Mowbray and they tell me that production has ended.I have been told that if the damage is only slight, a repair may be possible. Has anyone had a damaged wheel repaired or is it not to be recommended?

Bad luck Martin, by putting this comment it should go back to the top for tomorrow

Best of luck, you could try Leven who are doing the stud conversion to 16 inch spiders - they may have some customers who have old wheels left??

Yeah
its a bummer that they don't make them anymore.

hi, I have 2 front wheels, 5 spoke 7x15" without tyres. E-mail me if you are interested. I smashed a back wheel a few weeks ago and had to buy a whole new set, went for TSW Sting 5 spokes.

Paul-zzr1200 How much do you want for the front chimaera wheels. Are you willing to separate as I only need one? Cheers

zzr1200- If the wheels you are offering are A1, I would be interested in the other if you split the pair. My front n/side was kerbed and scuffed by previous owner

[jamer]

Martin did you get sorted?

[zzr1200]

Hi. The wheels are pretty good, one has a small scuff. I'll check tonight and take some piccies, on prices I really haven't got a clue what to ask, the rears would of been £147 new so fronts would of been less( checked with Castle TVR). I'll e-mail you both when I get home from work.
