    it bulges out on the other side to act as a global balance weight, so you don't get the dreaded wobble ;)

    Looks close Prof, very close.

    Could you find a larger image to confirm, prior to me awarding the win and handing over control of the quiz to yourself for next week?

    Just spent 5 mins in the vauxhall room myself. [xx(] Had to bail as it was getting too much. :lol:

    Found this though. Wrong around the centre, wheel nut / stud holes are wrong too, and it is 13".

    And the rest of the week's quiz is in fact an interrogation into why McDan should own these wheels in the first place, apart from the obvious point that the bodyshell to which they were once attached has long evaporated! :)

    Due to the lackadaisical approach shown by the quizzers in providing factual answers, the definitive proof that they are actually a Vauxhall rim is inconclusive.

    I do believe the winners trophy has been withdrawn?

    These are clearly not Chavalier CD wheels!

    Are these wheels 4 x100?

    If not.

    Who cares?

    If so.

    Who cares?

    Prof, that looks very like them indeed. I can't quite make out if the wheel mounting holes are for a tapered bolt. They look like they are larger than the holes in mine.

    Wheels are 4 x 100.

    Note that the rally boys like wheels with very little unsupported dish on the outside edge so they are less likely to fail if rubbed or bashed during a stage. See R8s daved. ;)

    Think of:

    Eggs, sucking and grandmas.;)

    Its not the actual physical dimensional form of the wheel that makes me retch. It's the fact that they are just not my own 'scene'!:lol:

    Anyways up. I always used steel wheels as you could un-bend the rims with an uber big hammer.:thumbup:

    You may know of this, but others may not have. You asked a question, I answered it.
