Looks ace Gordon well done. What are you doing with your old wheels?

Snap (but I got mine first 
I now have 8 Revolution wheels ranging from 6J up to 8J to cover wet and dry tyre combinations. I have the standard 5J wheels to move the car around.
I can't recommend the guys at Revolution enough - they made wheels to order within 3 days as they knew I had events coming up and needed the wheels pdq. The race wheels are really light and the finish is excellent.

Yes Martin, you were 1st, I like your 8" rears in particular.
I think 8" could be made to fit all round with a little fiddling, however happy with my 7" ones.
200-530 r13 tyres work well too. I had to move to 13" diameter as no good choices in competition tyres for my previous 14" Maserati wheels. Pity as I had hoped to sneak in some bigger brakes and I liked the maserati style. Charlie sorry I am keeping them though.
Revolution wheels were manufactured and delivered to me in just over 3 weeks,
Price about £500 the set. Cheap really for any decent sort of a wheel.
