My memory has given up, and google isnt helping Whats your memories of early to mid 90's wheels? Obviously the top runner has to be the antera 3 spoke I would quite like a set of these ;D And need i mention the TSW venom? but what other aftermarket wheels were big back then? Ignoring the big dollar splits. I remember in the mid 90's, following the softline epedemic, there were 3 and 5 spokes that were still sort of softline but with split spokes and centercaps that went into the splits a bit. Cant remember what they were though. Were they antera too? Thinking about getting some 'period' wheels but need 'memory refresher pics' ;D

Stealths were tsw's version of the antera 5 spoke right?
Anyone got any wheel brochure/advert scans from the early 90's?

i had 8x17 hockenheims on my v8 vauxhall magnum back in 95, not many were fitting modern rims to classics really then, when it became more acceptable to do so i went back to 70s rims!!

I think that's when we started to see Compomotive THs quite often, wasn't it?

TSW Hockenheims and the fox copy, fox 4s: My mates old renault 5 (Pic was taken about 2001 but the whole car was stuck in the late 90s - Bigbore 4 and everything!) Impressively the website was uploaded to some free webspace that came with my mates freeserve account which hasn't been used for 7 and a half years, yet the website is still live!

More 80's, but still lovely, if a little hard to find!
I like the idea of some of the iconic 90's wheels. I like the fact that alot of them are frowned upon now, i also like the fact alot of them are very cheap now too as no-one wants to touch them.
The hunt is on for 16" anteras in 4x100 ;D
Those momo arrows are quite tasty too.

I like TSW Venoms, TSW Hockenhiems and Momo Arrows. Lots of TSW rims remind me of the 90's mainly these....... TSW Stealths - Never liked 5 soft spoke wheels, really boring wheels! TSW Evos - (not Evo R's) proper lush 90's rimage ;D TSW Blades Can't remember if these were late 90's or earlt 00's but TSW Air are a cool wheel IMO (not that my opinion counts for much lol!)..... Not TSW but cool..... ACT wheels - 80's BBS wheels made under licence during the 90's, tasty!

I don't think the centers included any of the spoke like these do either. i don't know what they're called but i know someone who had a 97 fiesta that came with the exact wheels you're talking about on it. Not a fan though. All the deep dish/ bbs style ones yes, hockenheims, evos, even stealths as they bring back memories ha ha. but cant stand 3 spokes, arrows or these last ones.

Maybe, I'm sure they began with an A though.
Probably a few companies making similar wheels.
