Not the best pic in the world.... [;)]

What are they? 16" Cup1's in gloss black with a silver rim? [&:]
 
I'm the first to admit that I'm more David Bellamy than David Bailey!

They are 16" Teledials. All black, the silver rim effect is from the while slop that the tyre fitters use!!
 
What are they off? A post '87 Lux? I thought all 16" teledials were from pre '87 Turbos which had the early offset and the Lux ones were 15"? When the Turbo got the ABS offset they had the flat face alloys from day 1, then the forged Silver Rose ones and finally D90's.
 
My turbo had 16" Teledials before I swapped them over for the 5-spoke twists. Not sure what the offsets were though.
 
They are a full set of 8j 16 et 52 wide teledials. The fronts I had wouldnt fit with the M030 brakes so I found another pair or rears.

So thats me sorted for wheels now, 2 sets of D90's 1 set of Silver Rose's and the Teledials

My '88 Lux had 16" teledials fitted with alloy wishbones and late hubs.

I like the silver rim effect, don't wash the slop off [:D]

Did you paint them yourself?

Looks like Kevs come up trumps on the tyre front....[;)][;)][;)]

As always!

In answer to the previous question, they are fresh from the powder coaters. I wouldnt trust myself to paint anything that other people would see!!
 
Here's my teledials (7x15, ET52) painted Graphite grey (near enough black, actually)
