Just wondering if anyone knows anything about these wheels? There there sorta like a 13in BRM.

Yep dont know what there called but there used to be a set on a Kombi up here in Sydney about 20 years ago.

Yes they look like BRMs i had to follow the Kombi to get a good look at them.

can't remember what they are called, but they were made in the uk and are quite rare even over there.
personally i think they are cool and i like the look.

Sorry Rhett, I don't know what sort of wheels they are.

A Bit of Paint n Polish and they might look 100% different.

I dont have a set, but I do have a set of center caps for them, but I wouldn't mind throwing a set on the 60s style street racer I have in the back of my mind.
