Default CHEAP Pin drive wheels

For those of you still in the market for wheels, there's a killer deal being offered for Trigo wheels and adaptors. http://www.cobracountry.com/trigo/home.html
Get 'em while the Aussie dollar is strong !

Craig,

That is a REAL bargain!

I wish I did'nt have the dragways and buy these instead.

Then again - who wants some halibrand dragways 7" and 8" to fit Jag Series 3 studs?

Includes Falken tyres (slicks - nearly on the back!!!!)

Craig,

it is a great deal. I have these wheels, and they are beautifully made. But beware, they are only made one way, as per originals, in original size and offset.

If your car can take them, they are the best I have seen.

Cameron

Useful info - sometime's I struggle with terminology (UK to Aus etc)

Oh - and less of the uncle (nephew or grandson is fine)

Will have to get the tape measure out and check my offsets (sorry backspace)

Hehehe.....tis Ok pop.

Actually, I'm doing some homework to see if they will fit mine.

They are an excellent price...and.....the knock offs sorta appeal to my sense of style.

And.... I got some disposable $'s which given the excellent exchange would make this the time to buy.

As long as they fit.

Cheers Grand-dad

I just took delivery of my Trigos on Friday (ordered on Monday!) I got tires mounted on them and installed them this weekend. The finish is raw aluminum in the center, right from the mold. Most people would like to paint them I suspect, but I think the raw finish is more like the filthy magnesium of the originals. Mounting was easy and I had no problems with fit etc....

I attached a photo here.

PS. I'll be selling my Torquthrust2 wheelset on this forum later.
