    There are. Big Rich from Coolair has some lovely wheel fitted to his early.

    Think a little out of the box. But also look at old Mercs and some Yankee stuff for ideas.

  7. Are these the Carlton wheels I have a set of these in my garage they are stamped with BBS I want to get rid but haven't got a clue what they would be worth or what car they were originally for??

    Yours are BBS wheels off a mercedes i think. Depends on the PCD. Carlton wheels are 5x110 and Mercedes will be stamped 5x112.
    What size are they? 14" or 15"?
     
  9. They are 15 inch Zebedee Mercedes they look a lot like the standard BBS wheels i had on my E30 BMW i used to own. There is somebody selling some on E bay now that are very similar they look quite good on a Type 25. They probably would have looked a lot better on my bay if i had cleaned them up but i got some lovely wheels of chris gooner so they went to the back of the garage:)

  11. Surely these are wheels for people who want to spend their life cleaning wheels.
    And I refer you to LJK Setrights comments on wheels like this...

  12. That is why they came off i would rather buy different wheels then clean them:D
     
  13. They are nice

     
  14. I agree, I cant even bring myself to wash the sodding bus let alone the wheels hence I sprayed them black
     
  15. Went from Porsche boxter alloys back to steels.much happier now. I've Still got them with the adapter plates plus Porsche spare if anyone's interested
