I acquired a set of black Speedster Wheels from "Shooter" of this parish.
The plan is to fit M&S tyres by the end of the month, for the winter.
I thought it would be a good idea to see what they look like....
So, here it is.....just imagine the tyre is fitted! !

What does the Jury think?
I have found that the press in plastic wheel centers from the CX Plus Six fits.
Not so convinced by the wheel nuts: on the AeroMax wheel they are deeply recessed, on the Speedster wheel much less so.
Interestingly, the wheels are made by Fondmetal in Italy, and not the UK supplier apparently now used by MMC

The handy thing about M&S tyres is that Ocado will deliver them now.

I think they look good Peter thumbs

I have black wheels on the tintop and didn't like the chrome wheel nuts as they 'stood out' too much.

I found some push-on, plastic covers in gloss black which do the job and are easy to remove when necessary.

I also went for some black/chrome Range Rover badges which complete the look innocent

Just found a picture (sorry it's not the best....) -

Also, similar thing on our old Saab -

Very smart Peter. You just need side pipes and an "8" on the grill mesh to complete the effect wink

I'd like to do that to mine - but don't have the skills to do it.

I think the pepper pot rims will look great on Tarka, Peter.
