Rick Posted March 10, 2007 Author Report Posted March 10, 2007 ebay never turns up deepdish wheels. man im really stuck for wheels at the min. my last resort is to drive up the road to compomotive and fork out 600 odd quid thats without tyres
Admin Vista Posted March 10, 2007 Admin Report Posted March 10, 2007 Given that they're Down under, they look like they could be Simmons wheels. Here's some Simmons rims fitted to a Australian Montreal, looks the same huh? And here's a link to the Simmons website showing their range http://www.simmonswheel.com.au/range.html I think alloys are a personal choice and it takes careful selection to get the wheel to match and look right on an Old skool motor. Unfortunately that almost always means buying new if you want something that looks a little different to the mainstream
orionmojo Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 TSW hockeheims most definatly the daddies of all cossie wheels. i wanted some for my orion for a long time, but couldn't find any second handin the correct fitment

(ignore the fact that it's a five stud as they do both options)

Retromotorsport Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 Personally i think they " look" too new .. But then i'm stuck in a timewarp and the only wheels for a Non-Rally car bubbled escort is the Compomotive CX or a copy of that design.
