Did you buy those new? Nice! What size are they?
Posted by: sixnotfour Nov 26 2011, 09:28 PM
15x6 used ,The guy kept stating he paid $1200 for them. The lips and centers were polished, I blasted everything except the lips, and gave them a Krylon satin black conversion, ready to go.
Here is a pic of the unpolished 5th wheel, you get the idea.

Great wheels. Really like the look.
Especially interesting with the Union Jack. Hopefully your car won't try to fight itself. A true international.

Really cool wheels...but you know they're going to leak oil don't you?
Posted by: sixnotfour Nov 27 2011, 11:21 AM
Yes, but I also have the English made flame thrower heater to burn it off.

Desecrating a German car by putting Limey wheels on it .... you should be ashamed.
I did try to call you back about your case! Will try to ship it this week.

I don't know.. I like snowflakes. On a four that is.

Minilites =England
I was really hoping you guys might think there was a slight resemblence of these wheels;
I wasn't going to use the silly Brit Flag caps, But my wife ruled that.
I was going to use the old hex fuchs caps from the 80's to try to emulate the 917 wheel.
Ron , Dave was driving through so I thought maybe he could pick it up. no worries, no hurry.
A 205/55x15 not touching with no mods to the body is Special

Well, if you do some minor body work on your teener to make it look like a 917 ... I could accept that.
BTW ... the head studs did not "just screw out easily". Use of the SnapOn Collet Stud puller saved the day ( no worries, no pulled threads)
Wheels look GUD!

What's a snowflake wheel ? I'm not too savvy about these four lug cars.
