Is it possible to fit 70s style Wolfrace slot alloys to a 1995 Chimaera? Back in the day (1985) I had a Taimar with slot alloys. I now have my Chimaera which came with 17" alloys plus the original "Imola" wheels and tyres. The car looks great but the ride is rather harsh.....I'm not a great fan of the Imola style wheels and thought Wolfrace would look great and also be a deeper profile offering a more comfy ride. Any ideas?

Thanks gents, I'm loving the Billet 67. Have left a message and will be speaking with Image Wheels tomorrow.

Spoke to Harry at Image Wheels. Apparently because of the size of calipers etc they cannot creat the "dish" effect of the Wolfrace. The wheel would have a flatter appearance which does not appeal to me. I'll just have to sit on a cushion!! A question...It's lovely down here on the Kent/East Sussex border today. Worth a blast in the car?, or is there still too much salt on the road. I'm paranoid about me chassis & outriggers rotting!!
