Came across this photo looking at the Griff register, the owners name was/is HRG but when I clicky it looks like they don't exist anymore.

I can't view anything other than the thumbnail as I'm at work at the mo.

Cool, thanks, thought the M06's looked a little different to that, I guess not.

The curve of the spokes varies a lot with the offset and they can look quite different, revolution milleniums are also worth looking at if you can get them in the right offset for a griff

Yes, liking the milleniums. I did speak to Compomotive just before xmas but I need to see them in the flesh really as they said the curvature depends on the diameter and the offset. I prefer the flat spokes of the RL7's so want to avoid curved spokes.

I take it I can get the right info on wheel width and offsets for 17" all round on a Griff 500 if I do a searchy? I seem to recall I've seen threads where the offset cast into an estoril is not actually what it is?

From your pic Cliff the fronts look like they have more curve in the spokes than the rears, do they?

That's fairly usual I suspect. My Amil Gottis have a deeper dish on the rear.
