Great improvement, Springbok!

Vintage Wheels are every bit as good as Trigo () and Bob's gold centered wheels, both in polished and sandblasted rims, look much nicer IMO than Trigo's "all one color" options.

Looks Great! You will be thoroughly enjoyed with the improvement. Now you get to explain to others what a knock-off is!

Oops, just noticed. You forgot the safety wire! Drill a small hole in one wing of each spinner and run some safety wire around a spoke (you can cover the wire with a piece of rubber tubing so that it does not mar the wheel) and through the hole in the spinner. Do not tighten it fully, leave a little slack so that you will know if the spinner is starting to loosen. If you notice that the wire is tight later, then you know that you need to tighten the spinner again.

Looks great. Pacific Roadsters have a good looking profile. Sharp car.
