hubcaps = briliant. rare to see. most got upmarket awful alloys.

@Van B

figured out the inspiration for the globes and the ATS with a quick google.
both are "rip offs" of the alloys on ferrari daytonas.

unrelated products stealing the same design.
nice wheels. both ATS and the old aussie globes.

the ford guys will sell the grandmother and all her sisters to score a genuine set of them these days. they were all homologated by ford and it was a limited run back in the day.
lots of repros but like the 914 guys they are looking for the special marks etc on the back of them.
