    I think the centre bore will be 66.6, probably need spigot rings

    Are they a straight bolt on fitment without needing modification to the center bore?
    What do a set of them normally go for?

    I will try not to knock them then! I have measured them up and they are perfectly round unlike the Ronals which realy do seem soft as one of mine is out by over 5mm!

    IIRC those penta wheels are very soft and get dents in them quite easy...

    I saw these pop up for sale and realy liked the look of them so I picked them up today. I think they have a look of the works wheels, and are the perfect size to take some proper tyres! They are Mercedes AMG Penta 9x16 et 11. I think I am going to cut the raised centre off that holds the badge and have them powder coated white.

    I am also in talks trying to get hold another set of wheels which I have been chasing for a while. Have to wait and see if that deal comes off!

    Sorry to just reiterate what others have said, but nice work Hamish.
    It must feel great to be at the end of such a big project.

    I hope at the end it will be worth it. How many slopenose sq replicas are finished? I may sound a bit pesimistic, but I can see quite a few projects going, however only VolcanoRS has something what can I call nearly finished. Please don't stop.

    BTW: what roll cage you are going to install? Please post pictures, because I'm collecting them .
