What do the pre-cat Griffith cognoscenti think of these wheels I've just fitted, a nice blend of Gotti five spoke and OZ Racing split rim? I'm not absolutely sure, but I think this style of wheel was to be fitted on the road going version of the Tuscan racer (circa 1990/1) or late Wedge.







They do look better in the flesh, and please no comments about the 'TVR handbrake' brick!

What tyres are fitted? They look like quite high profile; 55 or even 60%?

I've got a set of these on my 4.3, generally I'd prefer to have a set of camilles on there but I don't dislike them.

They do look a bit 'over tyred' and wide but the sizes are 235/50 ZR 16 (Toyo Proxes)and 225/50 ZR 15 (Bridgestone). I've put these wheels on the car while I have a set of 5 spoke Camille Gotti refurbed.

You're supposed to comment about the wheels Richard! I can't help it if I've got a steep drive. wink

Mark I have sorted it, a glitch of some kind that made Daves profile page appear blank. So you should be able to contact him now via email in his profile
