Where to find 16"O.Z. split rim ???

[jon foz]

I have 3 O.Z. split rim wheels similar to the one in the pic



I think it is 7.5 " wide,will check this along with offset,I cannot seem to find any information as to which model TVR they came from (if any)

any help would be great

They came of Griffs , I think a number were on early ones , then an option ... certainly a number of 500LEs have them...and I've got them on my Chim, but mine came off a Griff. Mine are 15" front,16" Rears..but I think later ones were 16" front aswell.
Inspired by the Racing Jaguar Split Rim wheels (so I'm told) , but they were gold looking.


Don't know if it's true???

Yours look to be in very good conditon and look refurbished...no lacquer ??? or are they brand new ??? Are you selling them?? e-mail me.

Fitted to wedges and S's as well as Griffs etc.

No longer available apart from second-hand.

How many stud fixings ? This will help determine which series of vehicles yours have come off.

The pic of the wheel is one I have borrowed from this site,I will post some pics of the ones I have tomorrow hopefully,If I remember correctly I need a front 16" wheel as the rears are wider fitment and offset,Iam selling the wheels so was trying to make a full set as they cost me a fortune a few years back.
The wheels are 4 stud ford fitment if that helps determine what they are from,thanks for the help so far

I don't think they were fitted to Wedges.

Wedges have 5 stud wheels anyway.

Some SEAC's had them (8.5 x 15 IIRC), although, as you say, they were 5 stud.

I replaced my Estorils recently.

The guy I sold my Estorils to had the last Griff ever built. I think it was a 16” all round set of these he was replacing.

He was selling them in the classified section on the TVRCC website.
