Looking for TVR alloys
emsfactory - 27/5/06 at 04:43 PM

Hi chaps (and chapettes if applicable). I'm after a set of 18" spyder alloys for a TVR cerbera. Not my car i'm afraid but it does belong to a chap who owns a precision engineering company. I'm trying to butter him up.

He says he cant find any anywhere. Any ideas?

I said that.
He says these wheels are made from a softer alloy than others so they buckle easily?. He wants them cos they look nicer than his current ones.

Who knows.

So, they look nice, but fall apart should you bump a kerb? If he runs a precision eng. company, can't he make some?

He probably could but that would mean stopping a machine from making money.
