Anyone recognise/care to comment on these? I have been asked about them.
Apparently a set of 3 piece William Towns Ltd alloy wheels, staggered fit 8.5 or 9" rear and 8" front fitted with 255 50 16 rear and 225 55 16 front
Owner says he bought them as Jag wheels.

(Jonathan C tells me. * There is however an Image Wheels
http://www.imagewheels.co.uk/ established in 1987. From their site:

"MANUFACTURERS OF BESPOKE SPLIT RIM ALLOY WHEELS - EVERY SET MADE TO ORDER" *)

This wheel looks like the ones Bill Towns put under the 2 (Jag
based) Railtons he build.

Scroll three quarters down - says the red car is now missing its wheels!

Thank you Harry & Tim.
