UK company making wheels. Do you think they fit a C2?

I heard of this firm making wheels and had a look at the pictures and think perhaps they will look good on a C2.
What do you think? If there is any interest they make them from 15 to 17 inch up to 9,5 inch wide. You can have them painted the way you want to
I am sure that the group 4 wheels marking can be put on the backside of the wheel

I think that the wheels have a old racing wheel look about them. Like Halibrands

Nice to have that meaty center section all set to bore the axle and and any pattern of lug holes. I'm sure some Forum members would like to know what backspace measurements they can offer.

I will check what backspace measurements they can offer

The wheels are advertised on a Porsche forum

I like em'! They look like one piece wheels. If so, that may limit the backspacing to the thickness of the hub section.

I like them, too. And the option to bore them sounds like they could be made hub centric.

As long as you're looking at UK wheels, check out Revolution Wheels. 20 years ago they were the trick road race/autocross wheel. Very nice period look, kind of like ARE 200S wheels. They used to make them up in any offset. They are still in business, and have a web site. I think they still have a US distributor in CA, too...

Just posting some more pictures of this wheels that i like.

I think the rims have some "old style Halibrand look" which will look goood on a C2

I think they can be made at your specifications
