[Richie350]

Has anyone explored the possibility of having the stud pattern altered on the hubs to accept a 5 stud wheels ?

before i bought my wheels i talked to hispec and was going to get them to make me 5x100 hubs as they have done so on previous cars of mine but there is loads of alloys to fit the original stud pattern if you look hard enough

Not a cheap solution but if you go to www.imagewheels.co.uk you`ll find they will make up almost any stud pattern and wheel offset. A `cast` set for a Noble comes to about £1665 including VAT and carriage but they look great on my car. (Also if you damage a rim the wheel can be rebuilt to replace the damaged part only as they are true `split rim`/three piece wheels). You can offset the cost obviously by selling your current wheels.

Bob's wheels do look very nice indeed.

Has anyone fitted the billet 35 wheels to their car? Bob do you have pictures of your wheels on your car?

Good choice...also liking the 91...

im thinking of getting the 19's

[Biggriff]

neral consensus is 18"'s are the best choice all round, but 19" for posing

[andygtt]

I meant design not size

Really...?! These would look bloody awful an a nob!! (IMHO)... Yep, i think something simiar to 35 or 95 would be the way to go....

With the state of our bloody roads at the mo', I couldn't think of investing in some nice new rims. Bloody potholes are an absolute national disgrace.

Sorry to have taken so long - here are some photos of the car with Image wheels.
General view:

Front wheel:

Rear wheel:

The `preview` showed these as too large - I`ll re-post if this doesn`t correct when posted.
