Default New wheels on the 3dr.
Its been 18 months in coming but finally have my wheels sorted now.
Bought the 17" 3 piece split rim Compomotive CXNs from Martin at Reyland.

Shipped them off to a company in Liverpool called Rosler UK. They put them in a wheel rumbler. When I got them back they were highly polished and looked good enough to fit to the car.

I shipped the outer rims off to America to a company called. "New England Chrome" in Connecticut. They have been triple chrome plated and have a 6 year warranty.

The wheel face and bolts were sent of to "Quality chrome" in Hull and they plated them in 24 carat gold.

The inner rim I had powder coated in Anthracite.

Just need to get the centre cap sorted.

Picture was taken at last weekends Modified Nationals in Peterborough
