When I began my Shell Valley project in '93, I bought their wheels. They do indeed resemble Minilites, though mine have black spokes. I seem to recall that the manufacturer's name on the boxes was "SMC", if that's any clue.

hey guys
checked out both sites with out much success. the minilitewheels.com has only 8 spoke wheels and the ones i have are 10 spoke. the other site is out of country and might be expensive to purchase. i'd like to find a good used set, and if necessary i could paint the centers to match the ones i have. if anyone has any other ideas please post.
thanks,
paul

Paul,

I have an early 90's Shell Valley build that has the style you describe, but with eight spokes. Looking through some old Shell Valley brochures, I found a reference to both. No help here with finding a current source, but I'll drop you an e-mail with whatever information I have.
