Nice find, Ben

I ended up with wheels from Millaz. Not sure if they are still around. Nice product.

I love the wheels but seems they are not good to deal with from the links supplied. oh well I will send my money to the good ole USA.

If anyone has a used set of these wheels in 15inch diameter and want to sell then please pm me.

Hi Dave
The wheels look like they are Harry Witham's, I got a set off him about a year ago, if you want some more information let me know. If they have stainless inserts for the wheel studs they were possibly supplied by Laurie Boongalis. Harry called the style Wineglass Halibrands.

cheers

Dave,
Have a chat to Paul Bottomley. They are the same as my GT40 wheels (although mine were the first of the 17" versions made)

He should have contact details for the manufacturer as he would have got that info when he took over RF 1.

Mine have been painted to match the car, which i think makes a nice point of difference, but each to their own

I think I have a set of those wheels in 15" and they have gold color nock offs and I bought them but never got to mount them to the GT 40 style Avenger . I purchased them in 2005 or2009 , they have set for at least five years I think two are 10" and 8" widths for front and I could sell them if needed ,I should look for brand name and a number on rims let me know If wanted .
