Original Gangster 4 lug wheels? Are those even 15", they look pretty wide too? Title: Re: Speedwell wheels – interesting comparison! Post by: Sam K on March 18, 2008, 14:43:15 pm I remember reading some article about a Speedwell equipped Mini a few years ago and thinking they look like a tiny four lug BRM!

Title: Re: Speedwell wheels – interesting comparison! Post by: . on March 18, 2008, 21:13:02 pm Wow, the MINI BRM wheels have really come out of the woodwork lately.
I know of two other sets of 5 wheels for sale at the moment ! :o Title: Re: Speedwell wheels – interesting comparison! Post by: Neil Davies on March 19, 2008, 12:16:04 pm I have an old classic car mag from the early 90's at home with the Speedwell demonstrator Mini - an early '60's on ein pale green, fitted with a set of those wheels. What I could never work out was why the VW wheels were painted black with polished rims and ribs, but these are all silver?

Post by: Fastbrit on March 19, 2008, 16:08:46 pm They weren't all silver...They have been painted. Mark Forster's website is great, isn't it? He's helped us out with a couple of Speedwell pics. Very helpful guy.These haven't! http://mk1-performance-conversions.co.uk/spd_wheels.htm Title: Re: Speedwell wheels – interesting comparison!

Very helpful guy.These haven't! http://mk1-performance-conversions.co.uk/spd_wheels.htm I reckon the wheels on Mark's site could be the set of NOS wheels PalRui found a few years back. It'd nearly be worth buying a Mini Cooper just so you could run those wheels. Title: Re: Speedwell wheels – interesting comparison! Post by: mr.speedwell on March 20, 2008, 06:40:44 am find this info
