Top grammar tips!
Bought = purchased. Brought = relocated
Lose = misplace/opposite of win. Loose = your mum

Seeing some of the beautiful old-skool style wheels has put a though in my head ... ...Has anybody else noticed that 'wheel shops' these days only seem to stock 'blingin' 17"+ wheels for "'urchins' that wanna crooz..." Revolution '4spoke and 5spoke' for example are still made so why not stock these styles as well ...I think they would sell more once people see them  Oh well. |

Some of my favorites ...  Ronal Turbo/R10 (15 inch)  Revolution 4spoke (6x14) ...but must keep rim polished/shinny  Revolution 5spoke (7x15)  The good old steel 'Rostyle' design ( Rubery Owen style design ...although 'GKN / Sankey's in Telford,Shropshire ended up with the production contract throughout the 70's).  Minilite/superlight etc (6x14) I know these have been done to death but in the 'Gold'n'Silver' colour I like  ATS Classic  SSR3 (Photo taken from another RR menber)  Hayashistreet ^ ^ ^ So wheelshops please note ...these styles of wheels are more what I/we want! |

Did you see the wheel design thread that was up a week or two ago? worth finding and looking. |
| |
 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

Remeber to do just one spoke as well, then set it up so you have as many rotations as you need to make a complete rim, with history. Then when you modify your 'working' spoke the others will follow suite |
