Why are those threads closed, just because of a comment by someone that doesnt like it. |

I frickin' love deep dish alloys.
The ZT has the right look about it to suit them. Preferably I'd go for a fairly plain and simple deep dish. Kinda subtle deep dishy goodness hehe. |

V8 Cars were also supplied direct from the factory with grid spokes.
QUOTE=Sonic ZS;1694883]Each to their own with things like this. However... I read somewhere that it was only ever Apex's and Straights/11 Spokes fitted to the MG V8 models, as these were the only wheel styles strong enough to safely handle the extra power/torque. As both these designs have many spokes (hence directly spreading all the additional load around the body of the wheel), can you be sure your new ones will be strong enough, especially with just 5 spokes ? I appreciate this is a somewhat simplistic way of looking at it, but could get interesting if you were to crack the centre from an aftermarket wheel Good luck whatever you choose [/QUOTE]

Well, like the man in the orthapeadic shoes, I stand corrected... But I can't say I've ever seen one and pretty certain it wasn't an option in the brochure ? However, I know some odd specs did slip out occasionally.
